John finished his last evaluation tests on Monday and was given final clearance to proceed by his transplant team! This was great news! The request for treatment has been given to the wonderful folks at Blue Cross as of yesterday. Now we wait for final approval from them. Ah, just hearing the words "Blue Cross" brings your blood pressure down, doesn't it? Think lying on a tropical beach with the trade winds blowing - a book in one hand, a mai tai in the other.
As we all know, Blue Cross employees are kind and compassionate. They're highly motivated. They go above and beyond. They enjoy helping others. Sometimes they actually work. OK, so we're a little cynical! We're keeping our fingers (and toes) crossed that perhaps we might hear from them prior to the five-working-days Blue Cross claim processing guideline. Stay tuned, dear reader! You'll be the first to know! In the meantime, we'll dream of a tropical beach....
