Update on Evan's EleCare and insurance: After more than 7 weeks of ordering the next 3 month supply, and more countless hours on the phone this week, I finally got the word that our insurance's claim devision changed the status for it from denied to covered, and we also now don't have to reimburse them for the cost of the previous shipment they sent!!! PTL! That is all I wanted for Christmas! If all goes as I was told on the phone, we should be receiving it in 10-14 days! Thank you so very, very much to all of you who were praying!
Evan had a night this week with rather severe reaction to wild Alaskan halibut (fish), including hives, swelling in face, vomiting, and severe stomach pain, diarrhea, cough... The first 2 hours I was up with him I kept contemplating whether I need to give the EpiPen, but then he got better with other antihistamine. I so dislike those moments, when even as a nurse, I don't know if I am doing all I need for my son. Those kind of nights are more frequent than I wish, and make me even more thankful for EleCare. Evan, seeing my tears after I got the positive news from insurance, asked me: "Mommy, why are you happy and crying?" How do you explain tears of relief to a 3 yr old... The boys and I ended up doing a 'good news celebration dance' together!
