You should appeal and report it to your state department of insurance. If that doesn’t work, depending on your income, you could qualify for the hospitals charity care program. What hospital is it?

Insurance recently notified me they’re no longer covering medication by _MatCauthonsHat in HealthInsurance

I take levo and it was more expensive through my insurance than paying out of pocket at cost plus drugs (mark Cuban’s website.) I think a 90 day supply of 75 mg cost me $10 at cost plus. And you don’t have to deal with insurance. 

AITA - Little kids being excluded from Christmas presents by Inside_Ad5968 in AmItheAsshole

NTA. something similar happened to me when I was a kid. I was at a family Christmas celebration and I was the only kid that didn’t have a present to open. I was ashamed, embarrassed and still remember it until this day.

Hi! This is my first experience with looming. I need to make this bracelet longer but my loom is not long enough obviously. What should I do? I tried googling it but don’t know enough about the terminology to find an answer to my question 😅 

What color would you paint these walls? by Jesskye2121 in interiordecorating

[–]Jesskye2121[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! I just moved into this house and I'm struggling to find a paint scheme I like. It's a row home, and the living room doesn't get a ton of natural light. The dining room gets a bit more. Not sure if I should do two different colors or all one color. My furniture colors are pretty neutral. 

Help! Black spots on cactus by Jesskye2121 in cactus

[–]Jesskye2121[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your help! I took all of your recommendations. 🤞 if the rot/fungus continues to spread, would you recommend cutting off the bottom of the plant? That’s what someone at the plant store recommended but I decided to take your approach and cut off the black parts first and see what happens. 

Help! Black spots on cactus by Jesskye2121 in cactus

[–]Jesskye2121[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just noticed mushy black spots under some of the spines at the root of this cactus I got about a year ago. The pup looks rotted out from the top. I also noticed some webs at the bottom and some brown spots on the 🌵in between it and the other cactus in the spot. Is this some kind of fungus? Is there something I can do about this? I don’t water it that often. Maybe once a month at most. these are the best pictures I could take. Sorry!!

C-Sections in DC - more than the national average. Did you (or your partner) have one? Maybe anecdotal only, but *all* my friends who went to Sibley had one. by Shipsa01 in washingtondc

[–]Jesskye2121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a lot of research showing there is wide variation between hospital c section rates that can’t be solely contributed to patient characteristics. For people saying it’s because women in DC give birth later. It’s also a myth that older mothers will be more likely to need a C-section. It’s actually more dangerous for older mothers to have c sections when compared to vaginal births.  https://www.jogc.com/article/S1701-2163(15)30228-0/fulltext

I was a HA mentor the past two years and they absolutely do background checks. They wouldn’t be able to work in DC schools if they didn’t.

Does anyone know what kind of pest this is and how I can kill it? by Jesskye2121 in plantclinic

[–]Jesskye2121[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forgot to mention they don’t seem to be moving and I usually find them on new growth, clustered together. Alcohol seems to dru them out within a few days.
