Thankfully, you're being reimbursed. Well done to Bailey for fixing her socks. I've never heard of that brand & just saw that they are a bit pricey - $8 for one pair on Amazon. I'm only too happy to pay that price for a 6pk socks...lol, but I completely understand wanting to continue using your favorite items.

I switched her doctor because the first doctor would not give her a 1/2 valium before the procedure. His partner in the same practice would give her the relaxation medication. We go every 12 weeks. They give her the pill before the procedure in the office. I would recommend making sure your doctor will give you the meds.

That is rough, but I'm glad that insurance will help replace some of the costs. Glad you and Bailey are ok!<br />I think the worst power outage we have had was during the derecho of 2012, and we were without power for 11 days. We went to a hotel for one night since temps were close to 100 and I wanted a shower. ;)<br />Hope your eye dr appointment goes ok, and that it isn't anything too serious although the thought of a needle in my eye gives me the willies. <br />Have a great weekend.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11093313893708262722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-225169024525576477.post-50872078992247932182023-03-10T14:23:47.538-05:002023-03-10T14:23:47.538-05:00I've had eye injections.
