Misty-

Someone mentioned the Shriners, but I have no further info. Just a thought:)

Have you appealed your insurance company's decision? There are

several powerful appeals letters in the files section. Check them

out. Perhaps you can make them change their minds!

Good luck

Misty-

My name is Tanda and my 8mnth old daughter Kaia has been in her DOC band for

4 weeks now. We went through several different agencies to help us pay.

you can look these up in your phone book

Easter Seals

Red Cross- Emergency Services

Focus on the Family- you call them and they will give the money to a church

and the church will then disburse it to you.

Your local community action center

Catholic Charities

-you also might want to look into pregnancy support centers, a lot of times

they help with needs until baby is a year old.

Hope this helps

Misty,

My Uncle is a Shriner and we were told that if we had approached them, the

shiners that they would have been able to pay for the any of the medical

expenses that we might have incurred. I believe he even said travel

expenses to seek medical treatment. The best advice is to look in the phone

book and see if there is a branch in your area. The Shriners are tremendous

philanthropists especially when it comes to children.

I hope this is of some assistance

Matt and Sue

I read on an e - mail that the red cross may help? I never asked myself, but

I read somewhere they may be of help.

[Guest guest]

THANKS FOR EVERYONES HELP. I WAS ALSO WONDERING IF ANYONES BABIES HAD A

PROBLEM AND COULDNT GET THEM TO LAY ON DIFFERENT SIDES OF THE HEAD. MY

DAUGHTER HAD A TUMOR IN HER NECK UNTIL SHE WAS 4 1/2 MONTHS OLD AND SHE

WOULD NOT LAY ON THE OTHER SIDE. SO IM HOPING IF THE INSURANCE DOESNT PAY I

CAN SHOW PROOF OF MEDICAL RECORDS. HER PED.

ANYTHING. ANYWAYS SHE GOES TUES FOR THE CASTING IN DALLAS,

THANKS AGAIN FOR EVERYONES HELP IVE HAVE LEARN ALOT.
