| Now before you get all "attention seeker" on me, I would just like to say that my dad has a condition that needs to be treated with meds, and I am worried about him. If anyone can please help me figure out what to do, that would be great. That being said, here we go. My dad has an enlarged heart, and an irregular heartbeat. He is treated with medicine, and he had surgery before. My dad then got word that the insurance company will not pay for that medicine for him anymore. Its a 200 dollar medicine, and the 2 others are 50 each. So, he cannot get them. the other night, he started breating very heavy. Now the doctor told me what to do if this happens. Put his mask on, and pump the air until he calms down. Right now, he was breathing really heavy and screaming in pain. I just got back from pumping his air. He is a 53 year old man, and I am worried. Does anyone know of any insurance companies that cover the nessecary medication for my fathers conditions? We were using some cheap one, so is there anything mainstyream? Thanks. |

@fluttershy look it up, its real. He had to get an ICD put into his chest. I remember, he was in the hospital, and he had left all medical decisions to me, since he is a single dad and he trusts me. |

| If you think I am attention seeking, then be my guest. But, just know that I take medical conditions as a problem, not as a way to get care. I just want help for my dad. He is all I got, and if you wanna call me out on it, then fine. But can you at least answer my freaking question. |

| He is not relying on me. I am making it my OWN responsibility because I do not just use my dad to get COD. I love him, and I want him to be a comfy as possible is my PERSONAL JOB. My dad is a single dad, if he dies, then we have no where to go. Not only that, but I would be in such a hysterical mood, that I couldn't even began to tell you. I am making it MY OWN reposnisbility to say "Dad, I love you, I am give you the help you need to stay alive" Its not like I am paying for it, I am just trying to get the best option. |

| He is an adult that doesn't know where to turn. He has 3 kids, an enlarged heart, problems everywhere, a crazy ex, he needs help. He is so worried about us, that he can't even remember to take care of him. I am helping him, its not like I am buying it right now for him and controlling him, I am looking for the best way for him to be happy. |

He's annoyed by your decision
You aren't old enough to make smart decisions. |
