More Proof of God's Hand at Work

With Tuberous Sclerosis you can't expect medical bills to be cheap at all! So as they began to build up before we hit our out of pocket max Justin started to collect the bills and put them in order. He was slowly sending some money to certain bills to help make the mountain not look so impossible.

This morning he called to make a payment to the Texas Children's Hospital bill that we have from Jace's first hospital stay last year. This stay was extended way too long because they were rescheduling Jace's MRI that required him to not eat for at least 4 hours. Since he was 6 months old at that time going that long without eating was a stretch and every time they said his MRI was going to be at this time it ended up being WAY later. We would end up having to make them reschedule us since having a hungry 6 month old is not pleasant for anyone. Well after this stay we received the bill and it was pretty outrageous. I wrote a letter to them to explain my frustration about this. They called us and said they were going to cut the bill in half. What a blessing!

We were blessed again today! Justin called to make a payment towards this bill, just like he did last month. The lady told him that the account was at a $0 balance. He said ok and hung up. Then got to thinking how in the world can it be a $0 balance?!?!?! He called back and they said 2 weeks ago they zeroed out the account and closed it.
Yet just another act that proves God's hand is at work!
Prayers are being answered! Thank you to anyone and everyone that has said a prayer for us and Jace.
They are working!


Jace's new coat came in the mail today! I only had light jackets for him and after the freeze last week I knew I had to get him a heavier coat. There was a great deal on The Children's Place website so I ordered one.
I ordered 24 months even though he really only wears 18 month in hopes that it will still fit next winter too! :)
A friend of mine says her sons still fits in his from last year so its possible.
I had to try it on Jace when we got home. He looks so handsome in it :)
The best part of the coat is its 3-n-1. There is a removable hood, the fleece liner can be removed to be used as a light jacket itself, and of course it can be a huge coat.
