Ok, I met with Chad and STILL don't know anything! The whole thing is thrown up in a big mess with DHS's ruling. Chad will be filing a lawsuit about this (not just for us, but in general) to protest the ruling by DHS. In the meantime, Pat is to deposit the rest of the loan into Mom and Dad's regular checking acct. I'm to pay Mom's Sept bill from LNC out of Dad's trust acct---in Ar the spouse HAS to take care of the other's bills--hence me making this payment. I also have a dental bill for Dad + his pharmacy bill + Mom's pharmacy bill to pay, too. AFTER all of this, AFTER the first of Oct, Chad wants all Mom and Dad's accts to total less than $3000. THEN he's going to apply for both Mom and Dad for Medicaid for Oct. Who knows!?! The money they gave us is still subject to recall. He said it all just depends. I am NOT going to feel good about this whole thing until LONG after it seems to be settled! Anyway, that's the news from this front on that. Love you all, Jeanie
