Mom called the Obama care exchange and found they could get coverage she got her number and mailed in her paperwork. While up here for Halloween my fathers dramatic weight loss was the least to say shocking to me. I told her she needed to talk to the exchange and find out when coverage would begin he had to go to the doctor. Under the guidance of his lung specialist dad had already paid for an office visit and had almost finished a coarse of anti biotics nothing was getting better. We called the exchange to find out moms claim had not really been processed and the number she had gotten was nothing. No coverage until 2016 and she would have to start the process all over again. So today my father is being treated for cancer in a hospital room in pearland Texas with no insurance. Dad does have retirement although he is too young to withdraw and not even 200k. If my dad can afford treatment he may live, if not he will die. How in America can this happen? If he pays and withdraws his retirement it will financially destroy him and mom if not he will not survive? We shall see how this plays out. Just makes me sick all the years he paid insurance and never used it and now that he is sick it counts for nothing.

Tumors
Yesterday at 6:00pm my dad was diagnosed with a tumor about 2cm big in his right lung. My father was a pipe caser for about 35 years and had insurance till last June when they forced him into retirement. My mother has always stayed home to be the home maker. Well after her brother passing and the not even a year later her sister dying and my father losing his job came almost in the same day. My mom dealt with it all and making a huge mistake in the process not accepting the cobra my fathers employer had offered. My fathers unemployment 1800 a month cobra 1950 a month. My dad being my father decided that going uninsured was better and advised my mother they would not take the cobra. Over the next few months my father began to lose slot of weight and also developed a caugh that would not go away.

Halloween 2015
Knock Knock! Who's there? Jack The Pumpkin KING!!!! So it has been a little time since my last post, and well Halloween has come and gone.. Slight "frown face" that goes along with that statement But I will say Jimmy had a blast!
It started at 11AM when I first got his makeup done. He couldn't wait to be JACK. We got dressed and headed over to Great Grandma's.. To their delight he was very scary (HAHAHA) Photos are here:
Around 7 we started to trick or treat, and man did my scary Jack Trick or Treat! He was so good at it.
After every house "Momma we got 1 more!" he would try so hard to tell them that "he was the pumpkin king" and that he is scary. (HAHAHA)
Ernie and Jordan her significant other came by and offered up lemon drops. After a dinner of Candy and Hot dogs and Chili Jimmy passed out on Nahna like he does and the Adults partook in some Steven Kings IT. Over all goodbye Halloween you were here and gone way too soon!

Hockey days are here again!
It is starting again.. Sunday nights you can find my husband playing roller hockey at the local skate rink! Jimmy is always very excited about this and we made it to first game. Fall is coming although you would not be able to tell by the weather here in OKC. When will fall get here???
Jimmy on his very own roller skates. For the people who use to come to these games you may remember me flinging him all over the floor in his roller car walker! He has grown up so much.
I think he will play Hockey like his dad! We shall see what he gets into a little later on down the road!
