Sorry, you are right, I should have said "sonographer".

Our healthcare system is not the best but not the worst. Medicare pays for most things as does private health insurance. The problem is if Medicare doesn't cover something it is likely your insurance will not either.

Yes. I had an ultrasound done at the same place and he remembered me. He had told his whole family about it and was pretty proud of himself. I gave him a hug afterwards.

Thank you. Whenever I complain to my husband about my scars he always reminds me how lucky I am.

Not sure what to give as proof (not that anyone asked). Maybe this? http://imgur.com/QMv2H http://imgur.com/NvQj0 http://imgur.com/wJgAs

I guess being cooped up and not able to stand and walk on my own for a while got me to miss the outdoors enough to enjoy it more now. I definately spend more time with my son and husband. I am not as shy as I used to be as with my scars people are always asking me about them so I've gotten used to conversing with strangers.

I can't believe it costs that much for a scan! I will never complain about that $800 again! I hope things work out for you.
