Word came in today from Anthem Blue Cross that they had reviewed our appeal and had accepted our petition to go to UCLA! We are now approved to meet with an Oncologist and start treatment. Our goal is to meet with him as soon as possible this coming week. We don't know when George will start chemo., but the oncologist already has all of our records and is up-to-date as he works in conjunction with Dr. T. They are all part of the same Pancreatic Team. This is the best news we have had since receiving the "bad news," in February.
From now on, we can concentrate on fighting this illness, rather than fighting our insurance company. That battle is over and we can now focus on the real issue at hand.
Thank you for your love and support and especially to those working behind the scenes who had a key role in getting this approval. How can we adequately thank you....
With love and gratitude,
~Donna
AHEM .... Let's get Mr T and his "A-Team" fighting this thing. Love and Prayers as you and your family begin this battle.

The whole Penner family (that includes Hills and Shoemakers, etc.) is here behind you. Excited we have UCLA on the team. In honor of my Grandpa I will say FIGHT ON. Even though that's USC's slogan, it still applies! :D
