Thanks all so much. I called my daughter to tell her I was thinking about her surgery tomorrow. An update. They post-poned it again until I think she said November 15. She was on Medicaid; her husband got a good job, don't know what's with her insurance but until they know she's insured, obviously they don't want to do it. I asked her what was she supposed to do, die? She said as long as she was on the heart medicine she was ok. I'm not convinced because my brother-in-law went through something very similar.

It's the window for Medicare re-enrollment. The plans are so confusing. Maybe I should take it to chat. Surely there are other FReepers with aging and getting proper medical care issues. I don't think I've ever been rude to any of them ever, and some of those nurses types especially say the meanest things to me. I can't imagine any of them would talk like that to my sister who would have Cadillac ins, is wealthy and has good connections where doctors and insurance people wouldn't mess with her.
