I won't really be thankful until the first year I am thankful I didn't kill myself when I was fifteen when I had the chance. Still not there yet, but maybe in a few years.![]()

Sometimes it's hard to be Thankful. This year has been a difficult one. I've been in pretty near constant pain or discomfort since February, dealing with a host of health problems. My mother is seriously ill but specialist after specialist is struggling to find what's wrong. She's losing her memory, her eyesight, her hair...and the PET scan her doctor ordered for the cancer she suspects my mom's insurance doesn't cover. Medical debt is weighing me down -- and there are other problems too numerous and personal to name.
However, one of my best friends just left my house an hour ago, laden with her half of the magnificent and delicious meal we cooked. I can't afford to be with my family, and she can't stand to be with hers, so we made Thanksgiving together. We played Scrabble, watched movies, and made the best apple pie. I showed her pictures of my beautiful baby nephew, born just in October, and whom I get to meet at Christmas. I told her about the crazy fry bread cooking lesson I did with my young students for their Thanksgiving celebration yesterday; it's wonderful to have a job that guarantees at least 20 hugs a day.
I am Thankful today.
I'm sorry to hear that. I hope things turn around for you in 2010.Sometimes it's hard to be Thankful. This year has been a difficult one.
How the hell can a PET scan to rule out cancer not be covered? Has anybody called the insurance company to follow up on this?and the PET scan her doctor ordered for the cancer she suspects my mom's insurance doesn't cover.
Thank you.TSQ, I hope 2010 brings you and your mom a better year. Best wishes.

We appealed once and she was denied again. Her doctor is appealing again, and we're hopeful. The thinking is that she has a very early stage cancer that is causing paraneoplastic syndrome. She was able to get a CT but it's not sensitive enough to detect smaller cancers.How the hell can a PET scan to rule out cancer not be covered?
