Gunny, I like your idea of handling things. The thing is, I was giving baths daily & no one told me how bad I was til after they were there. The same hospital is coming at 2:00pm to talk about their home health to me. I should tell them - this one is on your hospital. Natalie M.

Suggest to your husband, just suggest, that he grab someone by the throat and hang them out a window till he gets what he wants. Just my way of doing things, but it does get results. -----Original Message----- From: natalie mizenko Sent: Jun 29, 2007 12:12 PM To: Gunny Subject: Re: [TMIC] Hello to all Gunny, I told my husband I wanted to see what they looked like and he came up w/ a brillant idea. His phone camera. He said let's give it a try. 2 photos from it and I couldn't believe what they had done to me. Now, they want to be my home health - nope. My home health I was using would only give me a catether to reuse after my caths from my cathing company in Tulsa ran out. I told them no, I'm not using a reusable catheter. I said Medicare told me I could use my cathing company still who supplies me w/ sterile throw away caths (all in one bag system) but they would not pay them for any catheters. The refused to be my home health provider anymore and had been off and on for 4 years. My home health nurse had to call me in the hospital and tell me she was so sorry the chiefs had made this decision and she didn't want me to hear it from anyone and my aide is so upset about it all anyway. I think I call the medical board and tell them how they do business. Thanks, Natalie M.

It might be trivial to them, but then again, it might wake them up! -----Original Message----- From: natalie mizenko Sent: Jun 28, 2007 3:50 PM To: Transverse Myellitis Subject: [TMIC] Hello to all Hi there, Well, I had to go back to the hospital after only 1 day at home. Once again for excruiating pain from my feet to my hips. This has been some of the worse pain I've ever had. Then, after staying there 2 weeks, I got 2 bedsores and I've never, never had any. I was at Baylor Rehab. for 7 weeks and never got one, because they would turn me at night. I am so furious at them. Now, they want to be my home health provider. Geez. My husband and I can take care of me - I'm sick of hospital people right now. How's everyone? I'm sitting up now in my chair as I have to be ready to go to Little Rock (one hour away) to see my urologist. Later, Natalie M. --------------------------------- Ready for the edge of your seat?
