By: Hada MonahanPH Patient
Hada Monahan
My journey with PH began in November 2005. I had just turned 27 and was trying to start a new life with my husband as a newlywed. I was working full time as a case manager for children with special needs. It was a blessing that my employer paid 100 percent of my insurance premium. I still had to pay a $1,000 deductible, but with a diagnosis of PH, that deductible was met almost immediately! Life with PH was good. I had a supportive family and co-workers, great insurance benefits and a rewarding career — what could possibly go wrong?
However, this house of cards tumbled down. On May 20, 2010, (a day I will never forget), I went into work with tears in my eyes. My PH had progressed, and it was very difficult to work a 35-hour week. I had a doctor's note in my hand stating I was no longer able to work. I went into work knowing I needed to attend an important business meeting. At the meeting we were informed that our employer was having financial difficulties and, as a result, would be cutting half of the staff. I was one of the "lucky" staff, remaining on the payroll but still losing insurance benefits beginning June 1. I gave them my doctor's note about my worsened condition and informed them I would be applying for short-term disability benefits.
I returned home shell-shocked, not expecting I would be losing all my benefits in an instant. I began to wonder how I, a PHer, could survive without insurance and if it would be possible to get insurance with this pre-existing condition. I immediately went to Maine's Department of Health and Human Services and applied for MaineCare. Unfortunately, I was denied due to my household assets. (Advice: Don't buy a timeshare.)
I did a Google search for "health insurance in Maine" and received more than 9 million hits! I tried to sift through the information, but began to notice that the websites were outdated and filled with inaccurate contact information. I didn't know where to go next. It was so overwhelming, and I didn't get anywhere. I was without insurance for two months and the bills were racking up.
Finally, I attended a PH support group meeting in July 2010, and when Jeannette Morrill, PH patient and support group leader, asked how I was doing, I unleashed my burdens. Everyone at the meeting said, "Don't forget about the PHA website; it has a lot of good information." Liz Mahoney, an Accredo representative, really went out of her way to write down and send me information by mail. She also told me that Caring Voice Coalition (CVC) could possibly provide healthcare premium assistance.
I contacted PHA and spoke to Margaret Beardsworth, the Insurance Program Manager, and she also informed me about CVC and Healthcare.gov. I called CVC and talked to someone, who also sent me information for Healthcare.gov. We reviewed the plans on the website together and discussed the best possible plan for me. CVC then participated in a conference call with my potential insurance provider to address plan questions. Given my budget, the cost for the premiums was crushing and out of my price range; I feared I would not be able to afford it! However, CVC staff reminded me that I could apply for assistance with insurance premiums.
The process for CVC's application was very easy and the turnaround time was impressive. I was notified that CVC would reimburse $350 toward my premium! After reimbursement, the cost was within my budget. Each month I have to send in a copy of my premium invoice, a copy of my cleared payment and the shipping invoice for my Tracleer™.
My biggest words of advice for all those reading my story is don't do it alone and don't wait to make the call for assistance! There are many organizations (like PHA and CVC) that want to help you. You just need to ask.

Posted on 11/30/2012 10:59:19 AM PST by greeneyes
The Weekly Gardening Thread is a weekly gathering of folks that love soil, seeds and plants of all kinds. From complete newbies that are looking to start that first potted plant, to gardeners with some acreage, to Master Gardener level and beyond, we would love to hear from you.
This thread is non-political, although you will find that most here are conservative folks. No matter what, you wont be flamed and the only dumb question is the one that isnt asked.
It is impossible to hijack the Weekly Gardening Thread ... there is no telling where it will go and that is part of the fun and interest. Jump in and join us!
Winter whear grows at temps above 35 degrees, IIRC. Visited all the beds planted for the winter, and they are doing well.
I have the following to harvest this afternoon. Lettuce, parsley, stevia, tarragon, rosemary, and lavender. Indoors I have 9 green bell peppers ranging from pea size to ping pong size. Harvested some basil to dry, and still have plenty left.
Still enjoying fresh tomatoes and lemons from the 2012 crop. Will plant some more spinach and lettuce out doors and start some pots indoors of chives, mint, and spinach.
Hope all is well with everyone. Have a great weekend. God Bless.
Pinging the list.
Pinging the list.
Pinging the list.
I swear I only posted once, and it took forever, but now there's 3 pings. Sorry, but it wasn't me.LOL
Making me jealous?
30 degrees this morning in NJ, no tomatoes for two months, two lemons ripening on the potted tree.
Haven't even planted bulbs yet, got a new dog who is taking all my time.
Postponed delivery of apple trees to spring for fear of early hard winter.
15 Tetsukobuto squash is all that's left of my harvest - maybe some arugula out back.
I noticed a day or so ago that the garlic I planted earlier in the month has started to come up. Aside from that there's not much gardening going on at my house right now.
Work on the new sun room is progressing. The guys got about half the roof shingled yesterday before my wife noticed that the shingles they were using didn't match what was on the rest of the house. Ooopsy...
Well, I AM enjoying the weather. Just a few days ago we were down below freezing at night, and high 30's and 40's, so we're not all that cozy, but so far enjoying a mild winter. I hope it continues all winter.LOL.
Say I didn't know that peppers were self fertilizing. Wish I had tried growing them indoors earlier. I think I'll plant some annaheims too.
I never feel like doing anything with the garden, unless it is sunny and mild. If it is cold or cloudy, I just skulk around indoors, drink coffee, and look at seed catalogs, or read the prepper threads. LOL.
Good news on the garlic then. Mine is up to about 5 inches. I need to get a fence around the 3 sides, but Walmart was out, so I'll have to check around or improvise.
We got below 30 degrees a few days ago, so I threw some straw on top of the row covers, and it kinda squashed things a bit.
How often do you look at your roof? I wouldn't care about the shingles as long as I got that sunroom done. My SIL added one to her house, and it is soooooooo awesome.
We have to get a truck for Hubby, and a storage shed to shift some stuff out of the garage. Can't even get my car in there or anything else. It is so stuffed, can't get to the stuff when we need it.LOL.
Also have a storage room in the basement that we want to shore up to withstand an EF4-5 tornado. Then we get a cistern or a sunroom, but the money will probably run out before then, and I don't want any more debt.LOL.
Still counting the days until I can start planting in the spring. I can't remember ever getting this tense about gardening. There's something in the air, and I don't like it.
Finally starting to get this year's seed catalogs! I've been going through last year's over and over for no reason at all. I just needed that gardening fix.
Thought I had my garden planned out already, but the plan is changing. Last summer I made some zucchini pickle relish for my mom, she's the only one in the family who eats pickles regularly. I'm sensitive enough to onions that I can't even be in the same room when they're being cut, so for the pickle recipe I used frozen pearl onions instead of fresh. Mom said she had been kind of eating around the onion and pepper peices, but a week or so ago she accidentally bit into one of those onions, and fell in love. Then earlier this week the same thing happened with one of the pepper chunks. So, now I'm making room for onions and bell peppers. I already have the pepper seeds in my stash, but I'll be looking for some eqyptian walking onions to grow this spring.
(Mom says "After eating one of those pickled peppers, I finally understand why Peter Piper picked a peck of them!")
Tinkering with designs for a pedal-powered garden tractor. Maybe if there's leftover wood from building my fence I might try making a prototype.
Am roasting two big turnips fresh out of the garden; in the oven right now. Have some lettuce still hanging in there in the garden to harvest tomorrow. - Today is warmish; but we've had some real cold nights lately. - On another subject; herbs: I've heard that the herbs LOVAGE and BORAGE are good substitutes for cucumber and celery. Comments?
Anyone got coldframes growing this winter? First time for me in central Ohio. Broccoli are starting to sprout heads. So far so good.
I don't use coldframes, but I do cover my cabbage, broccoli and kale with plastic sheeting when we have a cold front moving through. The residual heat from the ground keeps them in good shape until the weather warms up. Lettuce seem to really like the cooler temps and grow fast.
I always make a refrigerator pickle and put slices of red onion in it. Those onions are my favorite to put on a salad.
Haven't ever tried the pickled peppers though. Maybe I'll put up a few jars of pickled peppers and onions next summer.
I had not heard that, and have never tasted those particular edibles. Let me know if you try some, how it turns out.
I have modified cold frame. When the weather is cold, and the sun is shinging, I don't want to have to go outside to see if there is too much heat building up or something.
So I put raised beds next to a retaining wall for the back, fill milk jugs with water along the sides, and the front faces south west. Then I cover the bed with a row cover and weight it down with wood we have for the fireplace.
If needed I put anouther layer of row cover and/or straw. I only go out to harvest or take the cover off during nice sunny days with mild temps.
The row covers let in light and rain. Lazy daisy gardening.LOL.
"... got a new dog who is taking all my time".
CONGRATULATIONS!! Maybe by the Spring, you'll have a gardening buddy right by your side.
You are pretty calm for a lady who is related to the family that won $300,000,000.00 in the Power Ball Lottery this week???
Say what? I heard they were from Missouri, but haven't heard that any were related.LOL.
What are you growing in there?
Are you able to do that all winter and have the greens?
Well it hasn't been confirmed yet but I just wanted to remind you how I sacrificed to help your gardens all these years in case it's true.
Now I know that 4 inches of rain in the mid west is just a drizzle but 4 inches in 5 days in the NorthWest is a calamity and there is no doubt that the crick will rise...and rise... and rise because of our soil structure. I did wade out and pull the last of the carrots for my chief cook and bottle washer yesterday and she cooked a third of them to go with the baked Poke Spare Ribs last night with some of the tastiest smashed taters I have ever eaten. Life is good... if the crick don't rise...
lettuce, spinach, carrots, garlic, onions, winter wheat, winter rye, parsley, lavender, rosemary, stevia, tarragon.
Several are ready to harvest, others are sprouted, and others are young and tender.
I planted them at different times in order to have a little something all winter long to harvest-so I actually don't transplant from the "cold frame"-I grow it till spring, and harvest as ready along the way.
When spring comes, I take off the row cover and keep going. Usually I have lettuce until June before the last bunch is harvested for example. This also allows me to avoid a lot of Spring planting, since it is done in the fall.
I don't like the weather here until around June anyway, so I stay indoors till then, unless we get an unseasonablly warm day.
LOL. One of our frequent statements: Lord willing and the crick don't rise.
That sounds awesome. What zone are you in? We're 5-6 here.
I have a lot better luck with lettuce this way than when I try to plant it in the spring anyway.
This year I have 3'x 28' under cover, but I didn't get it planted as soon as I would have liked in the fall.
Winter wheat will grow at 35 degrees and above IIRC, and I don't remember for sure on the other stuff. But they make varieties of lettuce than are better for winter weather than others. They sometimes have names like "Arctic" somewhere on the package.
Haven't tried lovage yet, although I have seeds for it. Borage leaves are hairy enough I was afraid to even try eating them. The flowers are good, not sure if I'd describe them as cucumber-flavored, but they do have a refreshing taste, if you can get to them through the ants. Borage attracts ants in hoards, especially the big black ones that bite.
I only grew borage one summer. I think it's easier to just grow the cucumbers.
It's unseasonably warm in southwestern PA this week, 58 to 60 degrees. Dogwood tree is sporting pussy-willow type buds.
It's unseasonably warm in southwestern PA this week, 58 to 60 degrees. Dogwood tree is sporting pussy-willow type buds.
At one of my favorite times of the year. Sitting here going thru the seeds and putting together the order for next year.
Beginning to realize I have accumulated a number of heirlooms that are no longer in the catalogs, plus the ones that never were that I acquired thru trade. Got lots of seed saving to do this season.
Well, he appears to be looking right at you. Maybe he was having approach/avoidance issues. LOL.
Hah. My heirloom stock seems to keep growing too. And I am trying to grow at least one of each every other year to make sure I keep a viable stash of the ones I like and that do well in our environment.
"Cultivators of the earth are the most valuable citizens...the most vigorous, the most virtuous, and they are tied to their country and wedded to its liberty and interests by the most lasting bonds." - Thomas Jefferson.
The technique works well for pepper plants. I have a tabasco "tree" that's 5 years old, and about 7ft tall. The young growth that is in contact with the plastic get nipped, but the rest of the plant recovers.
Thanks for the quote.
Really, pepper plants outside in the winter? That's amazing, I'll need to try that. What zone are you in?
The 'weather guy' has come out with a video .... explains the weather through mid-December (especially for the southeast); however, he makes comments about the rest of the country and you can see the warm/cold areas on the map. It's a little technical, but he does a great job explaining. If you're wondering why he seems to be liking cold weather in the southeast, it's because the area where he lives doesn't get big snow storms that often & everyone who follows him is looking for snow (he was the only one to accurately predict some big storms a few years ago). Anyway, here's the video .... if you like 'weather', you might enjoy the maps/explanations:
PS - gorgeous weekend - high 60's last couple of days, might hit 70 tomorrow .... really nice to be out & about, but kind of weird to be so warm with the house decorated in Christmas lights!
Zone 8; Texas Hill Country.
It's 77°F at 4:30 in the afternoon as I sit here writing this. :)
Nice pic, BTW :)
Thanks for the link.
The Seed Catalogs continue to roll in from across the country. I'll have to take a peek at a couple tonight...
Well, I'll be. I haven't received a single one. Guess I am gonna have to visit some websites and make a request to get them going, usually they send them without all that.
Good Morning greeneyes. Thanks for keeping us together. I need to remove some akorns from one of my raised gardens. They are thick, so will sieve them out. Then a layer of compost and plant some carrots and other winter things. We're going to harvest some collards from the community garden, cook and freeze some. He loves mustard greens, collards, spinach and all that stuff, cooked southern style.
Not only that, they are perinnels. I understand in Mexico they can look like trees. Interesting. This year, they are going in pots, when "cold" weather comes, I'll put them in the garage. I have on tomato ripening. lol. Me and tomatoes, just don't get along.
You are welcome. Bet he likes polk salad greens too. We have it growing all around the walnut tree and taking up half of the garden.
Since nothing else grows that close to the walnut tree, we leave them there. Hubby fixes a mess of them once in a while. I have never developed a liking, though too bitter for me.
My problem with tomatoes is that they don't ripen quick enough to eat with spring lettuce, and they are kinda finicky about cool weather and growing indoors doesn't always work.
This summer I am going to start some in late summer/fall in pots,and bring in the pots after they have tomatoes started and about the size of a marble, see how that works.
Still eating on the fall harvest of ripened tomatoes and enjoying everyone, but going to have to make a salsa or something soon. Maybe I'll make some juice or ketchup just to see how my recipes I collected would taste.
I don't know what polk looks like. I understand it is a wild green.

Katie Tobias is a 23 year-old writer, artist and PHA volunteer. She was diagnosed in 2006, during a period she's described as physically and emotionally intense. Today, she writes a quarterly column for young adults in Pathlight to help other young people get beyond the initial shock of diagnosis.
Katie has written about adjusting to life with a chronic illness, travel, and finding love as a PH patient. She uses the opportunity to write for the PH community as a chance to express herself and inspire other patients her age. Katie writes,
"Living with a rare life-threatening illness is difficult in its own right, but fighting for your life at a young age, when your biggest concern should be what to wear for that hot date on Friday, is beyond words. All the medications in the world only fight half the battle — the easy part."
Katie makes even the hard parts more bearable for members of the PH community with writing that blends candor, humor and compassion.

The Law and Economics of Blockholder Disclosure
Lucian A. Bebchuk
Harvard Law School; National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER); Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR) and European Corporate Governance Institute (ECGI)
Robert J. Jackson Jr.
Columbia Law School
July 2011
Harvard Business Law Review, Vol. 2, No. 1, pp. 40-60, Spring 2012
Harvard Law School John M. Olin Center Discussion Paper No. 702
Columbia Law and Economics Research Paper No. 405
The Securities and Exchange Commission is currently considering a rulemaking petition that advocates tightening the rules under the Williams Act, which regulates the disclosure of large blocks of stock in public companies. In this Article, we explain why the Commission should not view the proposed tightening as a merely "technical" change needed to meet the objectives of the Williams Act, provide market transparency, or modernize its regulations. The drafters of the Williams Act made a conscious choice not to impose an inflexible 5% cap on pre-disclosure accumulations of shares to avoid deterring investors from accumulating large blocks of shares. We argue that the proposed changes to the SEC's rules should similarly be examined in the larger context of the optimal balance of power between incumbent directors and these blockholders.
We discuss the beneficial and documented role that outside blockholders play in corporate governance and the adverse effect that any tightening of the Williams Act's disclosure thresholds can be expected to have on such blockholders. We explain that there is currently no evidence that trading patterns and technologies have changed in ways that would make it desirable to tighten these disclosure thresholds. Furthermore, since the passage of the Williams Act, the rules governing the balance of power between incumbents and outside blockholders have already moved significantly in favor of the former — both in absolute terms and in comparison to other jurisdictions — rather than the latter.
Our analysis provides a framework for the comprehensive examination of the rules governing outside blockholders that the Commission should pursue. In the meantime, we argue, the Commission should not adopt new rules that would tighten the disclosure thresholds that apply to blockholders. Existing research and available empirical evidence provide no basis for concluding that such tightening would protect investors and promote efficiency. Indeed, there is a good basis for concern that such tightening would harm investors and undermine efficiency.

Wall Street analysts covering Teradyne, Inc. (NYSE:TER) shares are predicting that the stock will trade between $21 and $27 within the next year. This is the top price point and lowest from the analysts taken into consideration by Zacks Research. The mean consensus price target currently stands at $24.
Each of the analysts also offer Buy/Sell/Hold recommendations on the stock. At the time of writing, the shares have an average analyst rating of 2.13. A low number between 1 and 2 indicates a Buy or Strong Buy. A 3 represents a Hold, while a 4 or 5 represents a Sell. It's important to note that it's very rare for sell-side analysts to issue Sell or Strong Sell recommendations. This means that recommendations tend to be slightly inflated.
As for earnings, the Street is expecting that the firm will post earnings of $0.22 per share for the current quarter. This is compared to the actual earnings of $0.33 which the company most recently reported for the period ending on 2016-09-30. All eyes will be on the firm when they next report actual results on or around 2017-01-25.
Another metric we can look at to gauge the sentiment of the stock are crowd sourced ratings. Closing Bell is a website that compiles ratings from every day investors conducting their own research. As of today, Teradyne, Inc. (NYSE:TER) has an average rating of 3.25 based on 4 active ratings. Their scale is the opposite of Zacks, where 1 represents a Strong Sell and 5 a Strong Buy.
This article is informational purposes only and should not be considered a recommendation to buy or sell the stock.
