Spent most of the day yesterday at the Health Department filling out paperwork to get Olivia on any assistance that we can. I now feel like the government knows more about me than I know about myself.
She had her normal pediatrician visit last Thursday, the day after her Vandy visit. She'll go to the ped for checkups for regular baby stuff; i.e. is she rolling over/crawling/walking, etc. at the appropriate age-range. The cool thing is even though we had just gone to Vandy the day before, they had already faxed all the info from that appointment to our ped. So I don't have to worry about their office being on the same page as far as her treatments go. They'll already know everything that Vandy has told us.
Unless she gets sick we don't go back to the ped until Nov. Around the same time we'll have to do her 2 month shots at the Health Department.
Next week we go for an infant CF clinic visit at Vandy. Plus I get to visit DHS to see if Olivia qualifies for TennCare which we have to try for in order to get the Child Special Services (CSS) at the Health Department. She doesn't have to get approved for TennCare, although it would be nice, we just have to have a denied or approved status to give to CSS before they can process our application.
