What are you thankful for today?
Gratitude Project, Day 2: Health Insurance
Today I am grateful that we had the foresight to purchase individual health insurance eight years ago when we moved to NC and realized Tim's new employer didn't offer health insurance.
The excruciating cost of private health insurance has been a burden but the fact that we got coverage before Tim was diagnosed with Ankylosing Spodilitis was truly fortunate. I am reminded of this once a month when Tim goes to get his Remicade infusion, which costs $5,000 each (no, that's not a typo), as he will do today. Infusions that our insurance pays for in full, despite the fact that our monthly premium is less than 10% of that one cost.

Well yesterday I was thankful that Avery gave his new school a shot. For the first time in years we are both excited for school to start.
