It made me think this morning, while I was fighting with John Muir Medical Center about my bill and a $790 orthopaedic shoe that I never received, how much has my right hip cost me this past year?? So, I decided to look up all my claims online and add everything up. My insurance, of course, has paid for a good majority of it. I can't even imagine not having insurance at this point. I don't have the best insurance, but thank God I do have something!

Luckily, I've met all of my out-of-pocket costs (that I'm aware of). So this next surgery, I shouldn't have to pay a dime!
