And the money keeps rolling out...

July 29th, 2008 at 10:08 pm

I saw the dentist today and now she says there's bone loss in my mouth that might be causing my gum infections, and that might be solved by some removal of gum tissue by a specialist. Made appointment with specialist for Monday.

I'm assuming that's bad news moneywise. I've also still got a few medical bills from this month that I was planning on using some of my September debt-repayment money for. So I think I'm just going to designate my entire $1700 of September extra debt-pay money for medical expenses. If I somehow luck out and it doesn't cost that much, I can put some toward debt and it will feel good. If not, I'll have already let go of that hope, so I won't be too crushed.

If it's more than $1700, I would hope they'd let me pay in installments, so hopefully I will not have to put anything on credit cards.

    Wow!!! Looks like Murphy is starting to pack up and leave my house and stay with you for awhile.

    Good news, it looks like at worst you can cashflow it over a month or two. Real good news is if your insurance picks up it all.

    Good luck with the appt with the specialist. Good thing to have money allocated for it. I'd love to be a better pre-planner and have the confidence to face things like this. I think my scale for financial security is off kilter.

    Sorry to hear about the possible setback.
    But I must say you are taking it very well in stride.
