As you probably all remember back in Setember I was hospitalized. Well I got the hospital bill (and it doens't include everyone else's bills - just the hospital).
$30,000+ ouch!
Well there is a number to call to let them know that I might have a problem paying it (oh eah forgot they asked for a LUMP SUM payment! due immediately) - guess I left all my cash in my other blue jeans
Talked with the lady at the hospital about it. First thing I did was talk to God about this bill. The lady at the hospital said we will knock of 30% bringing the total down to $21,000!
I said thank you (and thank you God!) then mentioned I have no job and with the hernia have not been able to work since May. She asked if I tried Human Services and said yes - was turned down. Did I file a request for a discount (had it been approved it would drop the cost by 95%) - again disapproved. They are going to send another form for me to fill out. I don't know how God is going to work this out. I even asked if the hospital would hire me for anything I could do to pay the bill (and pay our other bills too).
I know God is in charge. Just want to say He is already working on it and a drop by 30% (about $9 grand) is a sizeable miracle in my book.
PTL!
