What a week...

Last week was interesting. There was some good and some bad. It started off bad. My son got sick, just a cold, but for a while I was worried it might be something more. And at some point last week our sink sprung a leak and flooded the living room. It still hasn't dried and our carpet is moldy. On the bright side, the manager here actually fixes things within a reasonable time frame.


Then my sister got sued by our former home town. It's a retaliatory lawsuit in response to my father suing them. He's winning his lawsuit, so the city is suing my sister to try and force my dad to drop his suit. And to make it worse, my sister tried to get an attorney through legal aid and they refuse to help her and won't say why. Aren't small town politics great?

And I finally got the bill from my son's last doctor's appointment. It's almost $700 because it was a one hour visit plus lab work and vaccines. And, thanks to the ACA, our insurance won't cover his visits to his regular doc so I'm stuck paying it all myself. I also have a $600 electric bill due on the first, so that's fun.

In good news, he's getting a referral to a neurologist from the doctor who saw him at the hospital after his seizure. I thought I would have to argue with to get it, but I didn't. The doctor just put in the referral to the top rated pediatric neurologist in the state.
