I'm in the Medicaid Client Services Unit. There are 6 of us & we answer NH Medicaid policy questions, help recipients find doctors & dentists, solve billing issues, help them get their medications, and more. A lady, who was quite serious, wanted to add her cat to her case. She was really doing her best to convince me this is done all the time. I did see her point. After all a being is a being, but Federal & State policy mandates that we cover only human beings, not animal beings. After 20 minutes she understood.

That's and interesting insight thank you. I think it's partly intentional in the sense I wasn't really trying to pitch my blog, in the traditional sense. <br><br>I guess I was attempting to 'define it' more than 'sell it'. <br><br>Hmm, I'll have to think on that one, thank you.<br><br>LOL you've got me curious as to what happened ... "a few feeks ago" I'm quiet in my pitch. That's and interesting insight thank you. I think it's partly intentional in the sense I wasn't really trying to pitch my blog, in the traditional sense.

I guess I was attempting to 'define it' more than 'sell it'.

Hmm, I'll have to think on that one, thank you.

I thought I'd heard every possible excuse, problem, story, etc., until a few weeks ago. Being surprised is so refreshing. <br>Best to you!
