I have good news all the way around.

The miscommunications over the hospital bill has been sorted out. The account was for paying the out of pocket cost to the Blue Cross / Blue Shield insurance company, not to the hospital for their medical fees. The hospital fees are covered by the insurance, the insurance fees are what I owe and is a separate account. I have things arranged and the bill will be paid off this month.

Arrangements as well have been made for a vehicle for me to get so I can get employment when released and I can make payments on it later when I'm employed.

Saw my orthopedic doctor last Thursday. He manipulated my knee and tested the ligaments. He believes two of them may be torn. I am waiting for their office to process an MRI Request with medicaid. Once the MRI is done, we can discuss options for a leg brace I hope, and limitations for work so I can get back into nursing on light duty, and part time till better.

Thank you so much for all the donations, the time to read these updates, the willingness to share my need with those you need, and the care and concern showed towards me. I'll be switching off the fund raising portion as all areas are met now and I can say with relief that aid and help are not urgently required. Thank you all so much! Hugs to you all!
