A kidney stone again

Well I got a kidney stone again. Being meaning to write about it but haven't felt like doing much of anything at the moment. I started having signs of the kidney stone a week ago today. I was hoping it would just pass and I wouldn't have to go to the doctor but it didn't work out that way. I got to hurry so bad on Wednesday that my husband had to carry me to the emergency room. We got to the emergency room about 12:00 or 12:30 pm and didn't get out there until nearly five. But I wasn't feeling no pain. The er referred me to a urologist and I got in to see him on Thursday. And he set up a kidney stone surgery for Friday. He did the shockwave blast to break it up. On Thursday before the lady that sets up the appointments called to have my set up. She had to arrange payment. She wanted me to pay over $800 and there was no way we could do that. After we set up a payment plan she called to set up the surgery. Once I got to the outpatient surgery I had to make another payment plan before I could get the surgery done. What has this country come to when someone is in so much pain has stand up and make a payment plan because they don't have $2500 to have surgery done. Yes we have insurance but we have a high % and had not reached it yet. Once I told them we didn't have that money. They wanted me to pay half of it. Seriously if I didn't have the full $2500 what makes you think I have the half of it. Then she asked how much I could pay. I said $200. So all together before having surgery I had to pay $600. And that is so wrong. I was supposed to be at outpatient at 12:30 pm on Friday and we didn't get out of there until after 8pm that night. And very since then I have been pretty much in bed sleeping on and off.

how the months are just rolling by

OH look how the months are just rolling by.  I can not believe that our Jelly Bean is 2 months old today. The days are just rolling by. We carried her to the zoo over the weekend and yes she slept for biggest part of it lol. We didnt stay at the zoo all day like we was kind of wanting to because I starting to feel bad. I had gotten up that day with a sinus headache and the heat didnt help it any. After we left the zoo we went to the rainforest cafe and our little Jelly Bean loved it there. She stayed a wake the whole time we was there looking around and smiling. It was so good to see her smile like that. I think it warrants us to carry her there every chance we can.
She is holding her head up pretty good and she can push her upper body up when she is laying down or on one of our chests. She loves sitting up. If you ever pick her up and think she will lay in your arms she doesnt like it to well. She wants to sit up and look around or stand up and look around. She will follow us and other things with her eyes. She has her cranky days but hey who doesnt. Her 2 month appointment isnt until Oct 1 so it is still a little bit before she gets her 2 month shots and we can find out how much she has grown. But I can tell you this she is a eater and can eat up to six oz.
Today when I was feeding her she kept wanting to hold the bottle her self. She did a good job to be 2 months old lol. I think in another month or two she will be sleeping thru the night. (well I hope that she will) She has gotten where she will only wake up like twice at night wanting a bottle. So hopefully it wont be too much longer and she will be sleeping thru the night.
She doesnt like to be in the backseat by herself at all. If we all three are together in the car and one of us is not in the backseat with her she will cry until one of us gets back there. So you can image how hard it is to talk to each other with one of us in the backseat.
Things are going very well. I am going to get off of here as I am not feeling to well. I can tell you this passing a kidney stone is not fun at all. I hope you all are doing good.

One month check up

Our Jelly Bean had her one month old check up today. It went pretty good. She has grown some and the doctor, well RN said that she was doing very well. Our Jelly Bean weighs 9lbs and 5 oz now. I kind had a feeling that she was going to be weighing in over 9lbs. She is one healthy growing little girl. She had to have her second hepatitis B shot today. She did okay with it. She had a little bit of a delay reaction when she got the shot but she stopped crying as soon as daddy picked her up. Now we are back home and daddy is on his way to work, Jelly Bean is laying in her playard (play pen) fussing at the flying monkeys about her (the mobile LOL) and mommy is sitting here checking on the my grades for my online class and thinking of taken a nap as Jelly Bean did  not want to go to sleep until nearly 12 last night and then the only way she would is to be hugged up by mommy. So mommy is tired. So yep I think a nap is in order.
We hope you all are doing good.
