?I really think this Psychologist knows what he?s talking about? Susan said after we put the kids to sleep. ?I called two references and they loved him. He specializes in Asperger?s and has some pretty unique ideas. He sounded real nice too.?
?Okay, what?s the next step??
?We need to make an appointment to go for an initial evaluation. There?s only one problem?he?s not on our insurance.?
?So what?s it gonna cost us??
?He charges $250 per week?
?Susan you know we can?t afford that right now. We?re barely getting by as it is and my business line of credit just ran out. Isn?t there someone on our insurance we can use??
?Andy, you know we?ve tried that and have never found anyone that was any good. If this is a chance to help Bobby, we?ve got to find a way!?
I sat down and put my head in my hands.
?I?ve got an idea but you won?t like it? she said.
I looked up and waited.
?Brad from Vincore has been calling you every week to??
?No way!? I interrupted. ?I?m not going back there. You know how much this business means to me. For the first time in my life I have a company that?s mine. I can?t give up and I won?t go back to Vincore with my tail between my legs.?
?I hate to put it to you this way Andy, but what?s more important, your son or your business??
?That?s not fair Susan. You know there?s nothing I want more than for Bobby to live a normal life.?
?So what do we do??
?Make the appointment? I said. ?We?ll find a way to pay for it.?
