Remember a few weeks back I posted a poll about how much you thought it might cost these days to have one's brain tissue sliced and diced and pathologalized. Yes, I just made that word up. I'm crazy like that.
::smile::
I myself totally forgot. And would have left you hanging forever had not yet another bill arrived in the mail this week.
Let me pause here for a sec. And emphasize that I thank God our old insurance was our insurance at the time of surgical intervention. As I somehow doubt our new non-Speech Therapy covering insurance would have gone to the same lengths to rescue a sweet little seizure saturated boy. No matter how adorable he may be.
But I digress. And run the risk of leaving you hanging again.
::drum roll please::
73.5% of you (sorry, guys but you were wrong) voted $15,345.75
18.4% voted (wrong too) $5250.00
6.1% of you (gave me way too much creativity credit) opted for "other"
and
2% (also known as 1 voter...bet I can guess who too!) chose the RIGHT answer of $1216.00
Rather reasonable if you ask me. Just don't ask our new insurance provider!

what a deal!
I was surprised what the actual cost of some of the items was too.
Sorry you're still getting bills! A year later, unbelievable.
So the $1200 was the cost to you? Our the hospital cost? And I assuem that cost was JUST the slicing portion? Our pre-srgical stay was tens of thousands. I never noticed what his brain biopsy cost though.
Oh yes...that's pathology ONLY. Everything together was well over a million. That's right folks...I have a million dollar kid!
