Another Challenge

We had a busy morning in Orlando. At 8 a.m., we had to finish a hearing test since the results were inconclusive during the first attempt. The diagnosis is that Simon has a mild loss in both ears which does qualify for hearing aids. My insurance does not cover hearing aids, giving us the challenge of finding a way to get them covered or paid.
After the test was over, we walked a few blocks to the main building for a pre-admissions testing. Simon was a very good boy during all the vitals and even the swab on his arm. The blood draw was harder, but he at least did not require a straight jacket and 5 adults. (In the past, that is what it took!) He stayed in my lap and strained some, but they were able to get it done pretty smoothly.
After the testing was over, we took a load of pop tabs to the Ronald McDonald House, and then we picked up the hearing test report. On the way home, we stopped at the Golden Arches so that we could eat and Simon could play. Now, we are home and watching a severe storm roll in. It was a draining day.
