James woke with almost no pain and about 75-85% range of motion! He is smiling and acting like himself again. I can not express my appreciation for everyone that has prayed, put our family on prayer list, shared our story, reached out, and every other form of support. Thank you so much.

I'll update again soon.

This is exactly what I've been expecting! Prayers from so many people were heard and answered. Amen.  So happy for you, James and your family. Thank you so much for letting us be apart, albeit small, part of this. This made my day!!

Dang. That’s breaking bad money. Surely that’s an error.

Nope and not our largest bill. Just thought others would get a good laugh too

[Butthead 525]

I have seen some obscene hospital bills but just dang. Hard to believe you can run a 2 million bill for drugs in 9 days.

Prayers continue to be sent for James, you and the family Bird. May God bless you all.

Outrageous.  Inpatient markup is, what?  30,000%?

No, we had to use that much while in.

[Bro Johnny Mac 1,394]

Just now caught up on your struggles my brother.

Praying for your son.

 I’m really glad he’s doing better!

I’ll get our people in Mongolia to pray for y’all.

You’re going to have people from all over the world lifting you up!

That's a lot of meds.  What an ordeal.  I feel for you all.  Gotta be crazy stressful.

I think you've got the right approach.  Laugh at the absurdities and be thankful things are looking up.

Bird, I hope and pray your son can stay out of the hospital and have a  long life and you watch as he takes off as an adult! You are a very good dude and just reading through this thread and reading your posts for years now makes us all want to help and cheer for you. Damn, I need to appreciate everything I have. Its been much easier for me. My kids are grown and married, and have great jobs. We have been very lucky! Sounds like your bills are terrible? Hopefully insurance is covering a lot. The AU family is here for you.

We have a running joke in our family.

 

"It's just money"

[auburnphan 6,050]

Well, at least the room was only just over $6000 a night.  Assuming there must have been a pool and a view

[AidiAU 1,270]

Well, your money won’t go with you to Heaven...and I thought my labor and delivery bills were bad!

Is your son still doing well?
