Beginning the process

We have heard that it is not always easy to deal with the insurance we now have. We were originally self-insured through the church, then had a Blue Cross plan here in WA, and now the HMO type plan. Fortunately our plan allows for outside network providers. We'll see how it all works out.


Yesterday my husband's primary care physician called and the two of them talked for about 30 minutes about process. First T went over his history, both past and recent, bringing Dr. L up to speed. Then the doc told him how to go about ordering the next test that our Houston doctor would like him to have. Hopefully they won't fuss about it. When T worked in the Caribbean, one of the professors he dealt with called him relentless; I have a feeling that quality will be essential now.


After their conversation was done, we tried to put it behind us, went to Seattle to celebrate our 38th anniversary. Had dinner at the Bahama Breeze. Haven't been there since Miami days. We must have a label stamped on our foreheads that says "Grandparents: love kids!" because we always seem to be put next to the table with little kids who get somewhat out of control. Last night we had a dad with three little ones beside us. T was just cracking up at the youngest, the true drama queen of their family. It was actually a good diversion.


Pray for us as we endeavor to keep our minds focused on the power, grace, and love of Christ. We need to be determined to do what needs to be done and keep moving forward. It's not always as easy to do as it should be. One step at a time, that's where we're living.
