I'm so glad Ezra finally has his appointment, even if it means a long drive!
Medicare Advantage plans are a scam to benefit the insurance companies. They consistently jerk people around. Regular Medicare plus a Supplement Plan is the way to go, because they don't suddenly decide that you can no longer see a particular provider.
WONDERFUL that you've finally got a date for that MRI!
I've been thinking how ironic it is that over here in Germany, one can simply call and make an appointment for an X-Ray, MRI, CT scan, and get in within a few days. The cost, including the doctor's assessment immediately afterwards, is about 1/10th of the U.S.'s. Yes, taxes are "sky-high" here, per my daughter Yvonne. But she says, "Mom, I don't have to worry about friends dying because of a lack of medical care, or friends being evicted because they've lost a job or fallen ill." It's a trade-off.
I have an old friend(well, frankly we're both old) who has done/does natural rehab. First at her home in Portland and now in new home in Vancouver - a move you likely understand more than I. I'd be happy to explore connecting if you're interested.
If your littles need to burn off a little excess energy after a long day traveling to P-town, I have a modest but double-sized lot in SE Pdx (48th and Morrison Sts.) where you're welcome to drop by & turn them loose with minimal supervision to have a bit of fun tiring themselves out. It's the house with a greenhouse in the side yard near a scrappy veggie garden. I'm completely serious! Let me know, or surprise us.

If you have Monarch Butterflies in your area, plant milkweed. The butterflies love it.
Happy birthday to Ezra🥳🎂🎈
