190912 - 2. Glad your drive home yesterday went well, without heavy
190913 - traffic. Wonderful, too, that AT&T has your phone service up
190914 - and running again. [...responding to Kathy's letter yesterday
190915 - on 110204 2248. ref SDS 9 PD5J
190917 - ..
190918 - 3. Bad news - yesterday evening discovered water heater broken and
190919 - would cost $1,200 to fix. [...reported on 110204 1030.
190920 - ref SDS 7 T65H...] Good news this morning discovered the unit
190921 - is under warranty and all costs are paid. [...reported on
190922 - 110204 1030. ref SDS 7 UV5I...] Bad news - after work was
190923 - performed customer was billed for "minor costs," which wound up
190924 - being $500. [...also on 110204 1030. ref SDS 7 AG8F...]
190926 - ..
190927 - 4. Good news - hot water works better than in past 6 months - it
190928 - had been failing gradually, but didn't realize there was a
190929 - problem until yesterday afternoon. [...reported on 110204 1030.
190930 - ref SDS 7 147K...]
190931 -
190932 - [On 110209 2337 Kathy said her water bill went down after
190933 - installing a new water heater. ref SDS 10 PD5J
190935 - ..
190936 - 5. Will investigate further the $500 charge, some of it seems
190937 - flaky. [...reported on 110204 1030. ref SDS 7 TF8M...]
190939 - ..
190940 - 6. Got a letter from Pam, Mil's daughter, today saying that she
190941 - and Kim are going on a marathon charity hike to raise money for
190942 - cancer research [...reported on 110204 1052. ref SDS 8 FP5G...]
190943 - to honor Kim's late husband, Ron - Mil's son. Amazing that
190944 - folks expend endless energy requesting charity contributions,
190945 - then train, and in this case do a 25 mile hike, but won't lift
190946 - a finger to help the poor patient when they need it to live.
190947 - It is a "big deal" if years of cancer research costing billions
190948 - of dollars yields a drug that extends life by 3 or 4 months.
190949 - Good case management costs thousands and extends life for
190950 - years.
190952 - ..
190953 - 7. Before you left yesterday, we chatted briefly about Kaiser
190954 - refusing to order prescribed care for Millie. [...reported in
190955 - the record on 110203 1130. ref SDS 6 AI5I...] This is
190956 - explained in an appeal filed after Kaiser refused to provide
190957 - care last year on July 13, when there was still time for her to
190958 - recover. ref SDS 1 036C
190959 -
190960 - [On 110209 2337 Kathy reported reading Millie's appeal, and
190961 - notes frustration that doctors would not listen.
