Anxiety

Our pup was hit by a car and has required extensive care. I submitted our claims and it took the full 30 days before a decision was made. I was very happy with the end result, but the anxiety of waiting on the claim decision was terrible. I will say that once the initial claim was approved, the following claims related to the incident were approved the same day. However, about 30 days later we discovered another terrible injury relating back to the initial incident. Its been almost three weeks and the anxiety on waiting for that claim decision is back at an all time high.
