Certainly, you are helping to place caregiving (and related issues) in the spotlight. A great work you have done, Patrick... great work!

How quickly all that security would be siphoned away if one of us needed hospital care for many years. bea<br><br>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19312567.post-65322295543867801552008-05-21T20:00:00.000-04:002008-05-21T20:00:00.000-04:00(((((((((((((CHUCK)))))))))))))))))Have a nice nig...(((((((((((((CHUCK)))))))))))))))))Have a nice night.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19312567.post-46768057976053444522008-05-22T21:32:00.000-04:002008-05-22T21:32:00.000-04:00....we were told that there are lawyers who only w.......we were told that there are lawyers who only work on getting medicad for people who actually don't need it....We don't qualify for anything help at this time...........we are still living on crusts of bread and heaven forbid,,, bottled water!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19312567.post-45134662795262268702008-05-25T10:51:00.000-04:002008-05-25T10:51:00.000-04:00I remember after Charlie was born with his medical...I remember after Charlie was born with his medical issues, Medicaid would pay for 10 days in the hospital. That was all. He had already spent 42+ days just prior to coming home the first time. It was scarey times, that's for sure! It wasn't until Clinton came to office those types of things changed for us.
