Who could resist a face like that?
Apparently Aetna Insurance can.
We have been denied three times now for coverage for Deak's medicine; It has also taken them ONE YEAR to tell us.
The fact that Deakon did not GROW for an entire year was not sufficient enough reason to prescribe Growth Hormone, and they will not cover medicine for solely "cosmetic" purposes.
Because, you know, we just want to see Deakon dunk it over Yao Ming's ugly mug someday.
What Freaking Idiots (to put it mildly.)
So, I am feeling kind-of inspired by the Series Finale of Boston Legal, and considering taking Deakon's case to court.
There has got to be a "heart" somewhere within the midst of the Legal System. And, there has got to be a way for kids like Deak to get the help they need - even if it is deemed "risky" or cutting edge.
Spend freaking five minutes with the kid...Make it about a person and not a dollar sign.
I have got my work cut out for me.

Go get em Jen.....You have got to have a case. I can not even stand how cute he is. I would blow up that picture, make 50 copies poster board size, and plaster them all over Aetna's windows. I am not kidding!
You do have your work cut out but if anyone can do it, you can.
That is bull ****! Wish there was something we could do. I agree it seems to be all about the $ and not the person. Too much greed and corruption in the insurance business. Good luck and keep us posted if there is anything we can do.
