Did they replace your tonsils with diamonds?

I was just asking Raven if he knew whether you got COBRA set up or not.

Gah...I'm so sorry, sweetie.

Maybe there are options??

It's good to know your throat is work as much as a mid-sized car.

So have you ever considered prostitution? I've heard it's a fulfilling and rewarding career path.
And it's a GREAT way to make friends!!

Holy shit! That is INSANE!!!

so if you dont pay em...

are they gonna put your tonsils back in?

Christ. You better have mechanical arms or something as useful.

Do you have insurance? Either way, when is the fund-raiser?

does interest accrue on that amount too?

I winced at that price then I realized I'd misread it as only sixteen hundred.

Then I winced a whole lot more.

Fuck, that's a lot. What's your job situation? Because you may be able to negotiate down... like 30 cents on the dollar...

Basically the idea is, you can't get blood out of a turnip. My dad's a lawyer and he's been helping coach me on dealing with my $30k medical bills. My email is pamc at pamcurtis.com and my #s are 425-347-4275h 425-737-0839c

I'd be happy to pass on any knowledge I get on how to negotiate down.

Ouch. :(

d00d move to canada for fucks sake!!!!!!!!!

i would, in that situation, pay ZERO DOLLARS.

oh man. steak is on me when i visit!

have you spoken to their credit department yet?

Call them as soon as you are able to speak, or write them a letter explaining your financial situation and applying for aide. You should be able to get that amount cut down a LOT.

You will probably have to talk to the doctors, the anethestists, the hospital, and others individually on it. But most of them should be able to give you some assistance with this.

I got a lot of assistance when I had my surgery there, I bet there are still programs in place.

I know. Been there, did that.
Next month will be my last payment of a $3000 kidney stone (Of MYSTERY!). Yeah it took 3 visits to figure out what it was...

where did you go... I mean harborview has paperwork to fill out for a "sliding scale" type thing...
You should check into that!

Have you filed with DSHS to see if they will pay for it?

If your income is below the poverty line, they will likely pay for it all. I had them do that a few years back when I broke my leg.

Many worthwhile suggestions. Good luck, darling.

Ouch.
