what to do...what to do ? ? ?

The kids were here from Arkansas for Ryan and Heidei's wedding! Always a treat to get to be with them all. Ashlee (T1 grandchild) is such a treasure and although I shouldn't have favorites, she certainly is the one MOST on my mind, heart and prayers!

I know (from my Mom's T1) that any kind of stress or change can effect the BG, so I shouldn't be concerned with Ashlee's numbers ...BUT I AM! Maybe its "growth spurt" or the trip stress, but that's child's' #'s were all OVER the board. She really could benefit from the pump, but her Endo won't consider Rx'ing it without documented brittle readings. Amy, bless her heart, doesn't log or measure anything. (I'd be crazy with out the numbers in front of me.) She doesn't remember when or if she's given a correction or what Ashlee ate, etc. etc. etc. SHE is just to busy with everything else, so what to do??? She'll never get a pump without logs for Endo to review ... they are coming back next month for a business trip, we'll have them 14 days. I am praying that Ashlee will come with us. I know Amy may change her thinking if we can show an improvement in Ashlee's numbers ... PRAY FOR ME ...

Disability / SS Benefits ??

My question ... to anyone who may read this bog .... does a child with a dx of Type 1 qualify for Social Security / Disability Benefits ?? I READ the publication from SS.gov and it clearly defines Diabetes as a recognized disability HOWEVER Ashlee's application was denied and SS Admin recommended the kids' use a Disability Attorney (even gave them a list of names in their area) to do an appeal.

The reason for the application is not for the added income (that would be nice however), it is for the MEDICARE BENEFITS after the two year waiting period. Their current plan SHOULDN'T be able to cancel or increase premiums .. but YOU KNOW FOR A FACT they WILL !! Additionally, as Ashlee becomes an adult and isn't qualified under Mom and Dad's ... she will basically be uninsurable ... so I want the kids to work on this NOW ... before it even becomes an issue!





It makes me anger the the "Octo-Mom" here in Cali has two or three children on Disability Income (with Medicare/Medical benefits) with a diagnosis of ADD !!!!!(These facts are Public Record!) Hyperactivity is a poor excuse for Disability if you ask me! I've seen 4 out of 5 children corrected of ADD symptoms with diet modification and discipline training! But the "Octo-Mom" is another post! Its really none of my business ... it just makes me upset that my tax dollars are paying for her plastic surgeries, medical benefits and fertility doctors !! No wonder California is in such a $$$ mess!
