It seems to get worse for us at every turn. Monday Morning the Paed Ortho's secretary rings and says Hailey needs surgery asap, as in this saturday, so of course we freak out! But we get over that and start to get prepared, then at 5 pm today the hospital ring up and say they have been onto our insurance co. who won't pay as they classify this as a preexisting illness and we have only has health insurance since june last year.... So regardless of the fact this was only diagnosed 5 weeks ago, and we have had the insurance for 8 months, they are saying it's pre exisitng and won't pay. Now we have to get all these forms filled out so they can do "Further assessments" and in the mean time pay private rates in a private hospital and also pay the surgeon and anaesthetist. Fingers crossed fo a tatts win!!!!

God i can't wait to say something positive to you!! I feel like an angry whinger.

Thanks Laura, It is nice to know that Hailey will be ok eventually, just seems so far away at the moment.

Hi Amy girl, The ortho surg is hopefull he won't have to open up Haileys right hip, but certain he will have to open the left one. I hope our Hailey copes as well as your Hailey,

Thank you all for your support.
