insurance coverage....

Posted on May 5, 2008 at 3:34pm 2 Comments

Hello- I am looking for help... My daughter has Alopecia universalis... We were informed that insurance does not cover "full cranial prothesis" Our insurance company said,"it is not a necessity"... its a cosmetic thing.. Does any one have any help on this ... if it was an arm or leg, then they'd cover it... well (not to be mean but you can live with out an arm or leg... hello..). I am sooooo upset...

Hi Barbara,
I am just now getting back to the wonderful messages of thoughts and prayers for my daughter, Kristin. I had the best sleep in 10 days last night because she is home from the hospital. Thank you for thinking of us and your prayers were heard loud and clear. Hope all is well with you and yours.
Love and Hugs,
Dotty

Hi,
We live by Wake Forest and my mom actually lives in Clayton off Guy Road. I would love to meet you guys and I know Taylor would love to meet someone else that also has alopecia.

Hi Barbara, Wow small world! No I never heard of that band... We were thinking of moving to NC, but we are going to stay on LI for the same reason as you bout no having family around. We may have no choice after our son gets out of college... But that's not for 3 more yrs. So I guess we will decide than. You know how expensive it is here... My husband just retired .
Hope to hear from you again!

Hi Barbara, I am sorry it is your daughter who has Au. I read a post before yours and became confused... not so hard to become confused these days due to the fact i will be 50 yrs old in a few weeks LOL! Yikes!
