What is the name of your state? MA
Hello, Today has been a bad day and I need some advice. My 14 almost 15 year old girl on December 15 was late for Gym because she is in band. She walked into gym and wasn't even changed into her clothes and the rest of the class was playing a game. The gym teacher told her to run so she did. Well, she heard a pop, then collapsed. Today I found out she needs surgery for an ACL torn ligament.
First of all, I was an athlete in my younger years. We stretched and warmed up and prepared for sports. I just got home from work. People are telling me this gym teacher is incompetent and that I should make the school pay for this operation. Let me say I am devastated at what my girl has to go through..ok its not terminal..it could be chronic, who knows yet? I am extremely angry**************
I am a divorced Mom with a $2600 mortgage and a disabled X-husband and presently on Mass Health because I cannot afford cobra and my company doesn't offer insurance. Sad state of affairs.
Should I let Mass Health pay for this? Should I talk to the school about my concerns? Are they responsible in any way for this?
I am not looking for anything. I just cannot believe that a gym teacher did not prepare a students body properly for running, remember most of these kids sit at their desks all day long and are very sedentary and that can pose a problem. Please tell me your opinion on this, my children and I have been very healthy and I have only been on Mass Health for a short time and I am constantly looking for a position with insurance, I have had Tufts my whole life until I decided to get a divorce, then th X became disabled**************.....yeah life is tough****************************please everyone**************.truth on what I should do because I am mad**************.Thanks
