Thank you MaggieMae
I'm just hoping I can focus well enough to write some cards. The depression affects my ability to concentrate and focus.

Jeff, Even when we feel discouraged and frustrated, God
will use that for good.  He is using your blog to educate others about depression.  American Greetings sounds encouraging.  Please keep us posted.

Jeff, it''s sad what people must go through as far as meds go......

Thank God my husband has good health insurance because I have to have an IV every other Tuesday that costs $4000.00 a treatment.  Now, can you imagine my dilemma if hubby hadn't planned.  These IVs are for the rest of my life.  My other medications are another $1000 a month.

I do understand what you're saying about pharmaceuticals though.  It's very sad what people have to go through to get the medications they need.  Something must be done.  My heart goes out to you and all the others that have to go through them. 

Thanks for visiting my blog and come back any time.  God bless.

Good luck with the cards, Jeff!

I'll send positive energy that will work out as you hope.

I hear you about the prescriptions.  I do have prescription drug coverage, yet a doctor recently prescribed something that the pharmacist said my insurance will not cover.  $143 for a tube of cream.  I just won't get it; cannot afford that much for one thing.  The crazy thing is that my insurance company and my medical group are one and the same!  You're right; the state of affairs for health insurance in this country is awful.  Something has to change.  I feel a blog coming on.

Wow $243!
That's crazy! I'm so grateful for my insurance. I hope that it works for you.
