I have probably mentioned this before, but wanted to say again how much of a blessing Medicaid has been to us. I am only starting to see how much it has helped us financially. Jonathan is on what feels like quite a few meds and some of them are very expensive. All of which, is now paid for by Medicaid.
Jonathan’s current meds are:
Tranxene – seizure med (2 per day)
Topomax – seizure med (5 per day)(cash price is $600/month)
Prevacid – reflux med (2 per day)
Cortisol – stress hormone replacement (2 per day)
Pray that the Tea Party doesn’t get over zealous in their attempts to curtail government spending and cut Medicaid for those that truly need it. Your family is a perfect example of a good American family that works, pays taxes, and yet still needs some government assistance for a health related issue. Some demagogues would cut out Medicaid altogether.
