[livejournal.com profile] dr_is_in's husband has been released from the hospital.

But, because of his prognosis, health insurance fuckery and some doctors who just can't manage to get around to it, his medication has not been approved for insurance-covered rates. It's $400 for a ten-day supply. [livejournal.com profile] dr_is_in doesn't have the money. Yesterday she was able to buy two pills for him which covered last night and this morning, but he needs another two pills today and this medication thrice daily going forward. That's right, she's having to buy her husband's medication, that's KEEPING HIM ALIVE, on a day-by-day basis.

Can you help?

ETA: Yes, apparently you can. You got it done, and [livejournal.com profile] dr_is_in will be passing the extra funds on to other folks in need.

Paying it forward and reposted.

As you might imagine, her situation's hitting a few buttons of my own. :-P

Sent. That is so ...arrrrgh.

That happened to me once; my insurance wouldn't cover pills. I had pneumonia. Fun times.

Thank you!

And yeah, these insurance-related things make me particularly aggravated.
