These glasses are from Ava's doctor kit, which she brought along in efforts to help care for grandpa. Funny thing is that dad keeps putting them on for a laugh, which is exactly the response he gets from Ava. It's pretty cute.
Mom and I have had an interesting time reviewing the stacks of bills and explanation of benefits that are pouring in now that dad's home. Many of the bills are from doctors that we've never even heard of or remember meeting. The bill from just the neuro hospital (not including the hospital he was first at or the rehab hospital he was at a month after) clocked in at $270,000+, and this does not include doctor professional fees or all of the pharmacy. Good news is that dad had just started Medicare in June and they purchased a supplementary insurance plan, without which would have left them in dire straits. In fact, the old insurance he was on would have left them in that same position. So it is kind of a blessing that this happened after June, and not before.
