[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 410382, member: 6546"] Good news is - DS had a great follow-up with the Rheumatologist today. Bad news is - she has some concern about the flexibility of his knees and ankles. The joints are not quite behaving the way they should. So...the doctor said that she wants DS to start swimming laps in the pool on a regular basis. OK - great! Well, we don't have a pool. Don't have a friend/neighbor with a "swimming laps" kind of pool. Which leaves me thinking about swimming programs at public pools (I'm not sure what's here in town - not much, for sure) and/or signing DS up for a health club membership. And how in the world am I going to pay for [I]that[/I]? Would it make sense to contact Medicaid to see if they will cover something like that? I hate being poor. And I hate feeling poor and stupid... (cause if you're poor, you're obviously a moron and ask dumb questions like about getting a kid into a pool program for "therapeutic swimming". Ugh!) [/QUOTE]
