Nah … birds would’ve won either wayDoesn’t hurt that the niners ran out of quarterbacks!!! Hoping for a bengals-eagles Super Bowl! Huge bengals fan! Time to beat the chiefs for the fourth time in a row to punch our ticket and get back to the Super Bowl!
Sadly no. Actually, a lot of caregivers go without insurance because they are trying their hardest to take care of individuals and many states penalize if there is income coming into the house.Sorry if this is a dumb question...
If you are deemed a caregiver for someone like Abbie, do you have show that you have medical coverage for yourself. I know it's personal choice and prerogative, but I'd think states would like to know parents of individuals like Abbie are making the best personal choices to best care for her.
I wish there was more help for caregivers. I've learned so much from you all and it really makes me sad knowing the struggles and up hill battles some/most families face simply trying to give their kiddos all the best. I'm proud of all you mommas who push forward and give everything for your families...selflessly.Sadly no. Actually, a lot of caregivers go without insurance because they are trying their hardest to take care of individuals and many states penalize if there is income coming into the house.
I am a full time caregiver for my kids.We have 2 with major medical issues and all 4 kids are on the spectrum. Since our gross income is over $600, I do not qualify for Medicaid. In my state, we don’t have expanded Medicaid, nor Medicaid for caregivers. Very few states do give Medicaid for caregivers and even fewer for people with normal incomes. I haven’t seen Florida listed as a state that has either of this too..!
We have to choose this month, to keep me on my husband’s private insurance or drop me. We go through this every year..
While the Maass’ tempt fate, we do the right thing and keep me insured. It isn’t cheap either..
Just catching up. The noise Abbie made at approximately 6.30 is wild. I would be driven to insanity if I had to live in that household.Asshat's doesn't ever "teach" Abbie anything... he uses her as a prop for his video.. you cant really tell how good she is doing.. as you can see the whole VLOG is nothing but jump cuts...(I'm assuming not good because of the jump cuts_... she could have had meltdowns in between times. Asshat likes to pretend that he is "chatting" with Abbie about chipotle... Abbie can't "chat" or really communicate much at all because she has no words... because no one teaches her.
Why does he insist on her grabbing cheese after "washing her hands"..ie... putting them in the vicinity of the water..
OMG.. the yelling... I couldn't do it. I get anxious just watching the VLOG.
She taken off even more recently than that. It was when they went shopping for a Christmas tree. Abbie decided to do a quick detour and sprint walk (well Abs version of it anyway) across a car park and was completely ignoring Asa as he called out to her multiple times to stop. They even titled the vlog “Stop running away”@SCCOct66
Like step-father, like daughter!!I hate ripping on Wayne, but he has not set a good example now, has he?

@letsgogirls
Yes, she did!!This was July 3, 2022.
Abbie took off...Big P took a step or two in her direction and then yelled for ASSa to help.
Before we knew it, Abbie was in the parade having the time of her life with ASSa, camera in hand chasing her while Big P was panting and bringing up the rear of the parade!!!!

I wondered that myself. In New Jersey we have NJFamilyCare (medicaid program) where the mother of a mjnor gets coverage when their children do, so she can stay well and care for the family. Not sure how that works in Florida however I do know Florida's "social services" offer close to nothing (when compared to NJ)Sorry if this is a dumb question...

WOW!! That is so expensive!!I am not as familiar with the heath insurance marketplace but I administer the healthcare through my employer. My son has his own business and does go through the marketplace and for him and his family, he pays about $2,500 per month in premiums and his deductible is $6000. It is very expensive. He is a high earner so he can afford it and wouldn't qualify for any discounts. I would imagine the Maassives are the same. My employer pays all of our deductible and 80% of the premiums so we have it pretty good. There is a limited number of insurance carriers in our region so we have to shop with those who participate in our area which makes it difficult to get real competitive pricing. Not to mention, depending on which group you fall into and how they calculate your premiums it can get very pricy.
Then again, as much of a cheapskate Asa is, I wouldn't put it past him to not buy healthcare insurance. That money could be better spent on date nights, Dunkin runs and new cars.
Yea, y’all are so lucky up there! Florida is like NC, so I compare it to my state a lot. I wished we could move towards there because the benefits and help are so much better but we have always been warned that the taxes are crazy..I wondered that myself.

Nah, by now she is six 6 margarites deep and snout down in a bowl of guacamole!! OINK OINK!!I wonder if Princess Piggy scratchy is missing watching her jags today?
This…AGAIN?Latest vlog
Is this repeat content?? How does Asshat know this is a "STIM"... that is his excuse for everything ... autism. Again.. with the "teenager" narrative too..Latest vlog
3 months agoIs this repeat content?? How does Asshat know this is a "STIM"... that is his excuse for everything ... autism. Again.. with the "teenager" narrative too..
There is no way Asshat knows that head tilt is a stim.. it could be an ear infection, could be from her ID and possibly damage to her brain...it could be her neck is hurting.
Again... Abbie loves the diner... of course...she loves EATING... just like her parents.
The HUMPS want her first ride in the car.... if she was going to EAT...he loves it.
LOL.. the waitress was being "thoughtful" .. putting them in a back table.. IE.. lets move the craziness to the back so others can eat in peace... the Massive take it as helpful to the princess... of Course.
No.....they don't careSorry if this is a dumb question...

I think he said that they didn’t do the Zoloft (anxiety) while she was out of town. Guess what, I don’t remember the head tilt being there either.. This could definitely be a med side effect/reaction too..We got to see two restaurants in one vlog! Since I mentioned the cost of restaurant food for the majority of their meals last night:
Also, interesting that Abbie apparently gets hydroxyzine prn. No wonder she looks drugged up and half-asleep most of the time Priscilla is around. They give higher doses of the stuff before surgery to start the anesthesia process. Because it's sedative at high doses. Lookin' at you, Mom of the Year.
Did Asa say he didn't give Abbie the hydroxyzine while Priscilla was out of town?
Strange.
IOk Tattle sibs, I'm curious about something. Way back in their old rental home with their old furniture. All of a sudden they were able to spend money on her surgery, put money on a home and get a mortgage and start buying all the things. Where did this money come from? Cilla wasn't at the top of Slimelife back then. Any thoughts? Surely FA wasn't doing that well to generate that money was it?
