    Holy fuck! (update on my nephew)

    I'm on the phone with my sister right now and she just told me that the docs fitted Bailey's head with a helmet that he has to wear almost all the time to protect his head.. BUT my sister and her b/f got a bill for this helmet and it's $1300

    They have like $0 so I will try what I can to help them pay that insane bill. That's ridiculous. $1300 seems way over priced for something like that.

      I was charged $38 for two cottonballs once, $1300 for a helmet sounds about right.

                          they do but not this helmet I guess.. They need to find ways to make $ and this I guess is one of them.

                                                  Hospitals charge outrageous prices. I was in the hospital for a few hours and my bill was like $2000. While your nephew is wearing a helmet to help sustain his life the doctor is making a payment on his Porsche.

                                                      ya, it's a money business. It's fucking ridiculous. I mean shit, a lot of money has already been spent in the last 2 months due to this and now this shit?

                                                          Go to the hospital and get treated before it gets worse. Then go on a payment plan to pay your bill. You can pay like $50 monthly, it's not bad at all and will be worth it. If you can afford a night out with the guys, you can afford health care. You just need to decide which is more important to you.

                                                              Yeah, hospitals are crazy. I know a year ago my son split his forehead open pretty good, it wasn't bleading, but it was one of those big open wounds that needed stitches of glue.

                                                              We went in the emergency room and one of the nurses came in with a little kit which had a cleaning towel and a little tiny tube of glue which she cleaned up the cut, then glued it shut.

                                                              A couple of weeks later, I got the bill, they charged me $490, $65 of that was for the little paper towel and the single use stick of medical super glue. The other $425 was for the nurse (note it WASN'T even a doctor) to glue him up which didn't take long.

BUT my sister and her b/f got a bill for this helmet and it's $1300

                                                                          They have like $0 so I will try what I can to help them pay that insane bill. That's ridiculous. $1300 seems way over priced for something like that.
                                                                          So they just said he has to wear the helmet and never said it cost anything and they just invoiced them?? C'mon man!! They would have said something about the costs etc prior.

Believe it or not, they don't want people dying, but at the same time they too have expenses that need to be paid for.

                                                                                                      Having medical conditions is very expensive and yes, it does suck. It's just one of those things in life you need to deal with.

I was just stating that $1300 for this is fucking ridiculous. ya, the government helps LOW income families but my sisters boyfriends has a pretty good job so they are not what they would call a low income family BUT there are bills at home that need to be paid for.. car payment, rent and everything else. So that takes up most of his income. Then they have all the expenses being away from home. it's not like they're a few minutes away from home. They are in Toronto and will be for quite awhile.

Was just an update kind of thing. I will look into the other options and also inform my sister about it so she can do the same.

But then we have the people higher up that run the show. Making people believe that a cure is being worked on for severe deseases when we all know damn well that a cure in NOT PROFITABLE and therefor will never come. All they will do is create a very expensive treatment that will "prolong" your life but still keep the illness you have. Some people don't wanna believe that this goes on but it does and always will. They have the cure for most killer deseases but they will never be revealed to the public unless the entire world population will die if they don't get it (after all, what would business be like if all your "customers" are dead?)

                                                                                                                                                  may sound right BUT a motorcycle helmet you use pretty much forever as long as you have/use a motor bike.. This medical helmet is not to make him live.. it's just there to protect his head in case he falls or something up till they put the piece of skull back on.. After that, the helmet is totally useless and will not be needed at all. Therefor, that's like flushing $1300 down the drain. If it was something that he had to use for the rest of his life then it would be more understandable. Seeing as it may only need to be worn for a few months then $1300 is a little steep.

Some people don't wanna believe that this goes on but it does and always will.

Was just an update kind of thing. I will look into the other options and also inform my sister about it so she can do the same.

This medical helmet is not to make him live.. it's just there to protect his head in case he falls or something up till they put the piece of skull back on.. After that, the helmet is totally useless and will not be needed at all. Therefor, that's like flushing $1300 down the drain. If it was something that he had to use for the rest of his life then it would be more understandable. Seeing as it may only need to be worn for a few months then $1300 is a little steep.

If people wanna help that's up to them, not me. in this case it was not my intention to try to get more money. Sure, by re-reading my first post it does sound like it, I agree but that was not my intention.

If it was one of my kids going through this I don't know how I'd ever cope emotionally, financially, physically... it's hard enough to deal with minor medical emergencies with my kids, I can't imagine what it would be like to have to go through something this extreme.

Around here my sick cousin had something called the ' I-Team ' to take care of stuff like that.

If so, I think it might be time you started something that generates a substancial income to help him with. GFY cna only help for so long, if you truly love your nephew, start making money to help him.

Do I look like I'm laughing about what happened to him? Do I look like I don't give a fuck? Since the day it happened I've been trying to help in whatever way I could which included giving ALL my earnings towards his cause.. Think what you want about me. I don't care anymore.

Otherwise I would have just come out and ask for help straight out. You're free to think what you want though. No harm done with that.

If people wanna help that's up to them, not me. in this case it was not my intention to try to get more money. Sure, by re-reading my first post it does sound like it, I agree but that was not my intention.
