Good news, bad news and then good news...

Soooooooooooo, here it goes for today:

Good news - My hearing test showed that my hearing is still 'within normal limits' in my right ear. It still feels 'plugged' but I guess I can still hear fine. Part 2 of this is that the doctor I saw today (the 'first' ENT doctor I saw when I first got my diagnosis) AGREED that Cyberknife is what he would absolutely recommend to treat my condition. So, his report would show another physician supporting my appeal.

Bad news - I talked to my attorney and he received Sharp's response to my appeal. DENIED! No surprise here but I still had a glimmer of 'hope' that they would DO THE RIGHT THING!

Good news - Sharp gave us their response a week early - so, I will be sending off my grievance to the State next week.

In light of 'bad' news - there is always something good. You just have to look at things that way because THAT is what will keep you going. I have talked about finally 'seeing the light at the end of the tunnel' and I truly feel that I am. Things will happen and persistance WILL pay off!!!

Today's Daily Affirmation:
"Each moment spent in prayer is like a coin put into a bank account." - Doreen Virtue

I know MANY of you have prayed for me (including myself) so I am assuming my 'bank account' should be overflowing! :) The power of prayer is a strong thing - NEVER underestimate your abilities with it.

Have a great Friday! :) Tomorrow I am off to Cyberknife San Diego for a consult! Can't wait to hear what they have to say!

Hugs -
Rachelle
