I was trying to ask her some questions about the dose for the shots. I guess the next time Dylan gets his they have to crack open another vial and every time they open another vial they charge the insurance company $6,000.00 No I'm not kidding, I will take a pic and show you. Seriously $6000 a dose. That's crazy. Thank God for insurance. Anyway it won't be long before Ava and Ryan have to have more. Well since Dylan is only taking a very little bit out of the 2nd vial, and Ryan and Ava only need a bit why have 6 vials when they can only use 4. Sounds good to me. They said they can't and they throw away the unused medicine. That is BS that is liquid gold. If they would do it it would save US $600 per month. After our Insurance we have to pay $307 per baby, per shot/dose. Each baby will have to have the shots once a month for 5 months. I don't know how this is going to work out, but how do you put a price on your children? Greg and I were so torn about letting them get the shots, but what would happen if something horrible happened and it could have been prevented. That wouldn't be fair to those babies.
If anyone knows of any programs for these Synagis shots, please email me any info you may have. I don't want anyone to feel sorry for us. That's not why I am posting this, I am just hoping that maybe someone knows of something that could help us out a bit. Like I said before with me not working and the economy, everything has been a bit tight.
Ok, so lets get on with the new weights.....
Ava
12 lbs 5 oz
Ryan
12 lbs 9 oz
...and my moose...Dylan
14 lbs 9 oz
These babies are getting so big. Be looking in your Christmas cards, there will be 1st Birthday pictures inside too!

Im from TC...I check your blog sometimes. :) . I cant seem to get to blogging myself..Im so not computer savvy...but...FYI..there is a program from the peolpe who make Synagis. They will pay up to $1500 in copays for you yearly. There was a post on TC about it not too long ago....HTH. Cute babies:)
I thought the last time we were at the office, they pulled medicine out of the second vial for a couple of ours, but based on what I read on TC, that seems to not be "normal".
I am totally with you on paying for the shots. I was torn too, but knew I couldn't live with the guilt if they got RSV and I knew I could have helped them some how!
