Trying to Feel Positive

I broke my ankle on Monday, February 7, and went to the Emergency Room. (Well? I couldn't freakin' WALK! And it really hurt!) At the hospital, they said they do accept my health insurance company. That's hopeful, isn't it?

Yesterday, I got a letter from my insurance company, brief and chilling:

Date(s) of Service: 02/07/11

We have received an expense for the claimant listed above. As soon as our review is complete, we will promptly process the claim. Thank you for your patience in this matter.

Oh lordy.
