I called Steve Phillips on the morning of November 26th, 2012 while driving to work. He didn’t answer the phone, so I left him a voice mail asking him to return my call. I said that I was just looking for any kind of update on what is happening, and I left him my phone […]
Mom went back to college in 1994, and received a BA from the University of Central Florida in 1998 at the age of fifty. She was justifiably quite proud of this accomplishment, and my sister and I were very proud of her, too. She owed just under $9,000 in student loans when she died. I […]
I’m always a little surprised when I can find no official website related to a company. As far as I can tell, C.E. Bunnell and Associates does not have a website at all. I’m not sure who they are or what they do, but I have a bill here from them to mom. The statement […]
I found a collection letter sent to mom from Kevin B. Wilson Law Offices dated July 24, 2012. The bill is for $2,712.30 and shows Florida Hospital Deland as the payee. There is a “debt number” on the bill that matches the one on the bill from North American Credit Services, Inc., the place I […]
This morning I found a bill for mom from North American Credit Services, Inc., a collection agency. The bill is for $2,169.84 for service performed at Florida Hospital Deland — also known as Fish Memorial — on December 2, 2011. The date on the statement is 06/20/12. I called the number on the statement and […]
Mom had an outstanding balance of $1,375.02 with Halifax Pathology Associates, PA, the company that handles — as far as I can tell — the billing for blood analysis (and nothing else) done at Halifax Hospital. That total covers six tests done on January 20th, five tests done on January 21st, three tests done on […]
I’m not 100% certain of all the details surrounding the story, but I know mom basically stopped making car payments on her Ford and they repossessed it. I am pretty sure — if I remember correctly — that I am the one that insisted she stop making payments on it, because she simply didn’t have […]
I found a bill for mom from a place called Radiology Associates. The statement shows it was for something labeled MRI BRAIN WO/W CONTRAST administered at HMC (which I correctly assumed to be Halifax Medical Center) on January 20th, 2012. The amount due is $275.00 and it was supposed to have been paid by 02/25/2012. […]
I am slowly and methodically working my way through a huge stack of bills and other paperwork for mom. This morning I found a statement from Volusia Hospitalist LLC dated 03/08/2012. The statement shows the name Mohammad Khan, MD and seems to be for services rendered on January 20th, 24th, and 26th, and February 29th. […]
I found a bill from Florida Hospital DeLand among the stacks of paperwork my sister pulled from mom’s desk. The bill is for $2,169.84 for her visit there on December 1st, 2011. That was the true “beginning of the end” for mom; it hurts to even see that date. I called the number on the […]
