Ok. I am not sure if I have mentioned Dave over here yet....if not long story short...10 weeks ago ( will be 11 weeks on Monday the 28th ) Dave was in a bad car accident. In hospital for 8 weeks 2 days, moved to rehab center 2 weeks ago today. Now becuase they are calling his left leg a "dead" leg at this point ( he broke 37 bones in his body ) becuase he can not bare weight on it. So get this Rehab center is saying they can not work with him till he can bare weight on leg, FIRST they were going to send him home...puts us all in a 360 spin...house is NO WARE wheel chair excessible. So plans have been in the works to get the house ready for him for the 30th....that is the date they said they were going to release him. O.k. now Dave forms a blood clot in his left leg...bed rest for 3 days no biggie. NOW today rehab calls my sister and says...well the insurance company says he can no longer stay here in our rehab becuase we can not rehab him till the doctors at the hospital give him the o.k. to bare weight on his left leg. They have to move him on Friday to a nursing home. THEN on tuesday he goes to see hospital doctor...IF hospital Doctor says he can bare weight he can go back to rehab center that day...OMG what the hell are they doing. They got to fire these half ass backward insurance companys who think they know what is best. SO now dave will not come home...( a blessing trust me ) will go to a nurcing home on friday just to go back to rehab on Tuesday or wed. This is what I say to that ....give me a break!!!!!!!!! BUT now there is another catch 22 as they like to call it. IF nursing home of choice has a bed BUT bed wont be ready for something like 5 days insurance will continue to pay for bed at rehab center till nurcing home bed is ready. NOW this part could work....if they have bed....and not ready yet...then......dave goes to hospital for xray and see doctor....doctor say yes rehab bare weight he will never have to move...but who knows...poor guy. I wanted to go and see Dave tomorrow after all it is thanksgiving BUT it is going to snow...at least my sister an nephew are going to rehab center and spending the day with him and sister is even cooking...cause dave says food SUCKS at rehab. So I hope it is not snowing that bad so We can go and visit....oh well gotta go...just have to vent about these stupid ass rehab center.
talk to you all soon....
