Not another medical exam

Last night, I had to undergo another general checkup for an insurance company. One insurance company already rejected my application last year due to breast lumps. Even if I went to a specialist and that specialist issued a report that it’s nothing serious, they still rejected it anyway. My company’s life insurance [...]

?Health Care Could be Fixed Overnight . . .?

Today, AOL ran commentaries on American health care and whether the new proposals will make a difference. The comment of one CEO who runs an enormous health provider, caught my eye. As I read it, I thought “he is talking about the USA, but the exact same thoughts apply to Qatar, to Kuwait, to Germany, where an epidemic of self-inflicted health problems is growing wildly.” And it also occurs to me that he is laying the accountability squarely where it belongs – on our...

Ask an Expat: Ice in drinks

The value of a stay-at-home-dad

Since my February medical update, I have indeed pursued if I would get any support from our insurance with household help, because technically I cannot do my job right now and Ritsu, besides being between 2 major workshops, has to do a lot of the stuff that usually I should be doing. Which of course creates extra stress on all levels. Good news is: Our insurance has a clause for cases like that, it is something that needs to be pre-approved and after harassing my bone doctor to email me some...
