Cindy in FL. Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 I cannot imagine how difficult this must be for you. I am praying for peace for you and protection for your ds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tammyla Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Oh, Faith...My thoughts and prayers are with both of you. Thank you everyone. Physically, I am feeling a little better today. The internal bleed resolved itself without surgery, but my son had to be given a unit of blood and then spiked a fever. Now he is having his leg ultrsounded but the trauma doc is releasing me to my parents care today. No one, including my paramedic dd and my husband will allow me to remain at the hospital as a non patient so I can be with my son. I am not handling this well, and if anything happens to my boy and I am not there, Dh nd I will not be well. I don't know how I could ever forgive him, and physically I am at their mercy. I can't stay unless they are willing.Yesterday, I loved every doctor, every nurse, every person who has been taking care of me. Now I am so angry with them that I am heartbroken.No one seems to care how hard this is 0n my momma heart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not often or lightly say I will pray, but I am offering up prayers right now. Prayers for you and your son that you will experience healing without complication, for all of your family that you will have peace and patience throughout this time, and for the doctors and nurses that they would have wisdom and skill in all their treatment of and dealings with you and your family.

It doesn't matter how big they get, that baby is YOUR BABY! :grouphug: I will be praying for you both. I hope you recover quickly so you can go sit with your ds soon.

umsami Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Oh no, I will be adding the other driver and her children to my prayer list.

Sorry to hear that they aren't looking as good for you... :grouphug: Livid to hear that your insurance won't let you be tested at the nearby hospital! That seems so wrong... And sad to hear about the other driver... I hope she's ok. Also... the educator in me just has to remind EVERYONE... DON'T TEXT WHILE DRIVING. The risk is just NOT worth it!!! Ever.

creekland Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 since this is a MVA wouldn't the other person's car insurance be paying your medical bills not your medical insurance? So could you not then go to the closer hospital since it will be the car insurance paying? Faith, this sounds reasonable to me. Since the accident was the other driver's fault, shouldn't you be able to go and/or see whoever you want? Can you ask someone - the police - a free consultant lawyer - anyone who would know? I do hope all is going better this morning - for all involved. I think of you often. :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

creekland Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Faith lives in a no-fault insurance state. Her own auto insurance should pick up medical coverage but whether it's primary or secondary depends on the type of policy she has. Bummer - but thanks for the info. Insurance should not be allowed to tell someone they have to travel oodles of miles/time to go to one facility over another - esp in cases like this...

4everHis Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Go back to the hospital and get it checked. Can you recline your chair in the car a bit to relieve some of the pressure from the seat belt touching the area you are hurt? I can't believe your insurance would make you drive an hour away with injuries like that to be checked. I don't really understand how the insurance stuff works in the USA, but since this is a MVA wouldn't the other person's car insurance be paying your medical bills not your medical insurance? So could you not then go to the closer hospital since it will be the car insurance paying? If I'm not mistaken Faithmanor lives in a no-fault insurance state, meaning your own insurance covers you, not the other persons. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
