There are groups around and inside Houston that don't care what kind of homeschooling you do and what religion (if any) you are. A few are FB based, but some are on Meetup. I'd be happy to share any ideas via PM.

My daughter was put on the waiting list for the Medicaid waiver program for medically dependent children when she was three months old. We're still waiting. She's almost 9. We're in Texas.

It's not exactly a vaccine. It's an injection of antibodies that's given once a month during flu/cold season. It's also crazy expensive. $2500 per shot (at least it was 8 years ago)

Why is the surgeon recommending this surgery? My daughter has not had this procedure but it is pretty common for kids with her particular genetic condition. As far as I know, it's mainly used to fix hyper nasality. It's been helpful for the kids I know who have had it done.
