it has been awhile since I posted here. thought I would bring it back up. I have done tons of research on it and have found a dr now that will take the medicare. at least right now he does. I won't get mine until July but I will be calling his office to see if there is any part of the pre stuff I can be doing in the meantime to be ahead of the game. excited and nervous about it but from what I am understanding I should not have a problem qualifying for it! woo hoo
