I have your street address, but no other information. I also have a couple of other questions to ask you. If you wouldn't mind please emailing me, I'd love to send you this letter that was just bounced back to me from your email that I have listed on our files. Loved your pumpkin pictures - everyone's in orange- and the cheerleading pictures! They really do tell the story! And that Ava is something else - just precious! Hope you're enjoying your fall - you sure look like it!

In ours, children who have insurance can also have TEFRA which picks up anything insurance doesn't cover. It doesn't pay as much to medical offices as our insurance does, but we have paid for nothing when it comes to our daughter. It is a federal program, but each state runs it differently. Ours bases it on our daughter's income, not ours so she qualified hands down. Loving the progress Sarah is making. Hang in there.

Are you not eligible for therapeutic services through school? In our state (MA), if a child has delays relative to her peers (particularly easy to get if they are diagnosed medically), she is eligible for services through the school system. Good luck!

I've been following you're story from the very beginning, but I haven't been able to post anything. I hate that Sarah has had such a hard life! And at such a young age, too. I just wanted you to know that you are always in my heart! Hi, I’m one of Cheyana’s friends. I’ve been following you’re story from the very beginning, but I haven’t been able to post anything.
