First of all let me say that I am so sorry for what you are going thru. I have also lost a son though under different circumstances so I can understand your pain. Try http://www.stillbirthalliance.org for more information about possible causes. Also please get involved in some support group or program it will help to talk to people who have gone thru the same thing first hand. As for managing, you have to allow yourself time to grieve and you have to understand that while the pain will never go away completely, it will get easier to deal with. I am praying for you. Janeen

Thank You, that helps a lot. Is there anywhere that I can go to find the forms I need to become certified by Medicare as a home health agency. I am in the process of becoming licensed by the state which I ofcourse have to obtain first, but I am having a hard time finding exactly what the requirements are for medicare.

For those who own or operate home health agencies, I have a question. If you have a patient that requests your agency can you contact thier Doctor to obtain orders or does the referral have to come from a Physcian?
