Ouch!!! She might be able to work with the hospital. If insurance doesn't cover it you can sometimes bicker with the hospital and lower the bill. I had a friend in college who did billing with our hospital and she used to work with people so the hospital can at least pull in some money.

First off: Awesome to hear she is better
Second off:
I would say F*** it! If i was a senior citizen i would say the hell with it if someone wanted to charge me $10,000 a month.[:@] Honestly what normal person makes $10,00 a month and is over 65?[>:] That is an outrage, I would call the congressman of your state or something....it seems impossible.
