Help...Enough Is Enough!!!

Okay, tonight I am definitely VENTING!!! I get a call at work today from the Social Worker that they want to transfer David out again to Rehab because the insurance company says that he can't stay at Shock Trauma!

Well, I went ballistic...I'm supposed to have a meeting with his doctors, the Social Worker and the so called Nurse Case Manager who keeps pushing him out the door to Rehab. Each and every time he goes out to Rehab he's back at Shock Trauma within a week and normally sicker than when he leaves!

I refuse to let David become a pawn in this silly insurance game. I told them that I wanted it documented that I am not signing any paperwork to transfer him to Rehab! I may end up not winning this battle but the war ain't over yet!!!

I have put a call in tonight to Barry Simms (from WBAL-TV,11) the original reporter who reported David's story. I told him that I had something that may be worth investigating...I would love to get their attention with some media coverage/interest in what they are doing to David...this is so wrong and they must be stopped.

Perhaps others could e-mail WBAL-TV and with enough interest we could get the media coverage that David deserves!!! I am asking tonight for any insight into this situation, help or suggestions you may have for how far I should take this!!!
