It's been a long road but we paid it all with no help from anyone outside of the hospital's payment plan. I'm thankful for the surgery as it was literally life saving and I'm thankful for insurance but I hope I never ever have to have major surgery again.

Did your insurance deny your claim?

No, they paid their part, it was just a hella expensive surgery. It was only supposed to be laparoscopic and an overnight stay but when they looked in there they saw things they didn't see on imaging so it turned into a cut from navel to pubic bone, removal of part of my sigmoid colon and a four day hospital stay at Duke. Then, not even a month later another four day Duke stay because my pain wasn't being managed at home because the jacktards refused to prescribe pain meds. It was a Charlie Foxtrot of a situation but I'm alive.
