Mike got the hospital bill. It’s $650,000 with our portion being about $3,000. Not bad but still overwhelming. I’ve done the math and once Zoe is taking only the 3 medications she’ll stay on forever, her medications will run us about $3,600 a year. Right now it’s a little more with the extra meds. Her Cellcept and her Prograff are the expensive ones. Cellcept can only be filled from a University facility and it runs $275.00 every 3 months. The Prograff is the pricey one. It’s $200 a month. Yes that’s with insurance. The price went up $100 this year but without insurance it’s $1,000.
I want to thank everyone for their continued support. We couldn’t do this without you.

I’m sorry to hear Zoe’s friend isn’t doing well. I’m remembering her in my prayers.
I almost feel guilty hearing Zoe is doing very well. Our webtv newsgroup still follows the site and prayers for both girls. 🙂
Have tried contacting the manufacturer of the costly drug to see about patient assistance? A phone call generally results in FREE drugs from the company. They do take many things in consideration and folks with extreme circumstances usually brings a positive result… insurance or no insurance.
You can email me if you have questions. 🙂
