We lost the last Appeal so I had to file for a Reconsideration. The insurance company must be getting tired of paying.
I'm still trying to get an answer from Admissions at the other facility. I leave messages; but she won't return my calls. Very professional.
My husband has been feeling fine since his ER visit and walked a record distance yesterday. Now I wish they would work on his getting in and out of bed and on stairs.
I will be going to visit him today. Bringing soda and some fast food. His 2nd cousin is bringing me (housekeeper's mother).
Thank you for your continued support, prayers and thoughts.

I am sorry to hear you lost the last appeal. I hope you are able to get a answer from the other facility. That is so frustrating.

I don't have much faith that we will win the Reconsideration.

@LindaOHio I am amazed and thankful that he has reached this point.
It will build different muscles as well as different commands from his brain, which haven't been used in too long.
I hope and pray that this is the beginning of his last corner and that when he turns the next corner it will be at home with you.

He started on the stairs on Friday! Once he conquers those he must be able to get in and out of bed by himself.

The insurance needs to figure this out. If he goes home too soon and gets injured, he will be back in hospital or rehab.

They don't think that way. They are only worried about $$$.

I'm sorry they're not getting back to you. It must be the new standard in professional courtesy in returning phone calls.
I'm glad your husband walked more than usual. It's a good sign. I hope they start working with him getting in and out of bed soon. Then stair climbing.
Enjoy your visit with your husband later.

At this point it might not be worth it. I think my hubby might be home by the end of the month.

Enjoy the visit with your hubby and I'm sure he'll be happy to see you AND the fast food 
Hope the other facility returns your call. That's totally unacceptable.

I've just about given up on the other facility. Hubby should be home in 3 weeks or so.
