what I'm worried about is his new knee he had that 2 years ago. he's non weight bearing for 3 months. so the right leg with the new knee is going to be supporting him. of course insurance will not pay for a wheel chair or the new device that is like a wheeler on wheels . It has a shelf the leg rests on so no need for crtuches. That cost $750 or we can rent it for $30 a week . yea right like thats possible.and everyone says Ford has good insurance. well they don't have retiree insurance it really sucks. Ford Motor really put it to their retirees.
Yes I'm venting. He worked 7 days a week 12 hrs a day for 32 years He worked in the foundary . in those years he missed MAYBE a total of 2 weeks at the most.
