"You do not pay the price of success, you enjoy the price of success..."


I bet you guessed what that was, if not… sure you did… but if you really don’t know, I suppose I can err on the side of, perhaps not? Yep, a Chinese fortune cookie from China City, they deliver, ya know? Any-who, today was another day of not too busy for me but Hubby has been wound up lately, he finished cleaning the rest of the tile flooring in the house the living-room, foyer and laundry room and then went out and washed the car! I, on the other hand, had a quiet day on here and, that is until I started wondering why I hadn’t been called about the delivery of my Copaxone as of yet. Thinking that I only had a couple of weeks supply left they, the other company used to call to tell us, since it is refrigerated and has to be signed for, and I had not heard from them and so I called my doctor’s office and left a message for the RN to get back to me. Now having the Assistance Fund pick up the enormous co-pay of $850 per three month supply I had gotten approval and they are carrying the whole thing, not unlike when I was un-insured and I qualified for another program. Anna the nurse called back in a very short time and she admittedly said she faxed the prescription over to Accredo the new one for my specialty medication, but in actuality they are part of Express Scripts now Med-co. I asked her for their number since I thought by now that they would have called, since it had been a week. A very nice person, Janell, with Accredo, who seemed to know her stuff checked and said that the fax had come through but was not that legible. All they knew was my name was on it and nothing more. I said well that is not good. And proceeded to give her the doctor’s fax number and name and all the other info that The Assistance Fund gave to me that Anna felt that she did not need like account id, group number and the bin… I knew that she did, but she seemed so sure. I should have argued, but it was one of the few times that I hadn’t, and so I screwed myself over with another delay! Does that mean that I am stupidly getting soft, I sure hope not! Any-way, I hope that now with all the proper information put into the proper hands it will get the job done. You know that I hate second guessing people and that’s because I want to truly believe that everyone in their specific position knows what they are supposed to be doing, but we all know that is NOT always the case, and who should do it, follow-up, if not us for our own needs, hmm? Once it was finally settled, at least I hope so for today. It was too close to call for dinner prep and thus, the Chinese food and the fortune cookies, three, but again we only ordered small dinners and a one large soup. Guess they believe in spares… The first one read is the one in my title, it is simple and concise. The next, you decide; “ You cannot become rich except by enriching others.” I liked that one and it was mine. The last one is perhaps prophetic for us all, “The smart thing is to prepare for the unexpected.” On that note of the ancients' note or the younger couple's note who owns China City,… allow me to be the very first to wish all of you a very happy good night and ask you to kindly count all your blessings and we will too! And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?!
