Hi all, a bit long...
I have been in insurance dilemma H#LL for the last two weeks and have finally decided not to continue COBRA and let Aetna win this war. They paid for every single test but nitpicked on the surgery. This way my new insurance BCBS (thank you to all that told me they went through the process easily with them) will be in place, my short term disability (just in case as a single parent) will be in place and last but not least because I broke a tooth and can't afford to pay for the tooth and COBRA, my dental will be in place also! There must be a reason for this, I feel 100% better to have made the decision. I do appreciate my surgeon's office for hanging in there for me and being willing to try-try again. They are the best. Thank you all also for your kind words and encouragement off the board, I needed it!
