Jack fell down and broke his crown...

...and Blue Cross Blue Shield went after his mom and dad for everything they've got.

Really.

Well, we have started out our 2010 deductible year with a bang! In the past two weeks we have found ourselves twice in urgent care and once in the emergency room with Jack. The order goes: possible magnet ingestion (see previous post), bloody diarrhea (yes, we said bloody diarrhea in a blog), and falling off rocking chair and banging head which resulted in 3 stitches on scalp.

Call to Obama: parents of toddlers everywhere need health reform and they need it quick! The job of a toddler includes tasting tiny objects, drinking dirty bathwater with your cousins, and testing out gravity. Back in the day, toddlers could try such tricks out and we could pay the doctor in chickens. Ok, admittedly the technology is better now, but must we choose either an arm or a leg as payment!? If nothing else, health care in America needs to reform for the children. Children must be free to test out life to the fullest and not still be paying for it when they are looking at colleges.

Well anyway, Jack is happy. They paid him off in stickers.
