OH WOW!!! This is so cool!
I am Kari in Wichita, KS...We receive SSI and Medicaid for Kaydie until we have all the legalities settled in her adoption, then she will be on Dh's insurance.
I am FROM Amarillo, TX and visit several times a year...My cousin works for TDMHMR. Small world, huh? I would love to meet you next time we come down.
IsabellaMom....I would love to meet ya'll next time I am in the DFW area. We come at least once a year to visit my best friend.
Sherri, Staci and Becky...we all live within a couple of hours of each other. Perhaps we should plan a get-together???
I don't know many other families locally with children with DS, so this is very exciting to me!!! LOL

Kari: What a small world! I was born and raised in Wichita Kansas! I haven't been there in about 8 years......I need to go and see my grandma soon, and would love to meet you! She lives in a retirement center on Harry...near Oliver I think. LOL sorry....I know this had nothing to do with the topic, but I thought it was so cool to find someone from Wichita!

This is cool, I am Lindy. My daughter is Jenna and we live in Homosassa, Florida. (like an hour north of tampa). She gets SSI and Medicaid, and we also go through CMS. I don't feel Jenna is getting all the "stuff" she needs here.
Dee in Reno: Jenna was born in Fallon, Nevada, we lived in Tonopah. But we moved here in March.

;D ;D ;D I'm Lori. My hubby is Brooks, and my sweet little man is Marcel. My hubby and I are blesses to both be in the United States Air Force. Unfortunately we got stuck in Mountain Home, Idaho. About 50 miles from Boise. The Air Force pays for all of Marcel's needs. So far he has racked up around $75,000. I paid $8 to give birth in the base hospital, my meal. Hooah Air Force!!!!

As usual, I'm late jumping on this thread...
Judi, Mom to Sam & Patrick, (the cutest identical twin boys w/DS you've ever seen!!!)
We live in Dallas, TX
I've researched quite a bit and have not been able to figure out how Texas administers TEFRA or the Katie Beckett medicaid waiver. The only program I know about is the same one Jackie's Emily is on the waiting list for. Texas pretty much *stinks* in this area. My boys are also on the waiting list for the CLASS program, (please don't ask me what the acronym CLASS stands for because I can't remember!) but it may be years before we even get an interview to see if they are eligible.
