Ugh.. Can't catch a break (just venting)

My sons teacher is positive for COVID and has to quarentine for 14 days. As of now he is asymptotic and doesn't need to be tested. The original plan for day of surgery was my mom was gonna keep him til my wife gets off work, and then she'd have him that night and the next day. But on the 7th we had a miscarriage due to ectopic pregnancy and she had to have her left tube removed. So she is on lifting restrictions. And my son is 14 months and doesn't walk. So my doc already said that by Monday the 16th i could puck him up carefully. I just have no clue what to do. Probably just cancel it and reschedule, but then my deductible wouldn't be met so my free surgery becomes $2500. Im on a fixed income so no way to afford that . Maybe its just not meant to be

So sorry to hear. Is there an extended family member or a close friend who could help out (either by letting your son stay with them or by staying over to help out your wife)? Would it be cheaper to pay someone to stay over the night and day your wife will be home with your son rather than starting over with a new deductible? Sorry things got so complicated, I hope it works out for you.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
