Plus when you get bills for $1900.00 for a hospital visit that resulted in nothing for you it gets even more frustrating. One of them has already gone into collections but what do you do?

He came close

Originally posted 2020-06-16 12:44:24. My husband keeps the bandana that our dog, Charlie, wore around her neck on his work bag. He was leaving work last night and noticed her bandana not on his bag.
