Chris's Finances

Chris and I share a checking account at SunTrust, now Truist, in Washington.  His Social Security check is deposited directly into it.

In a typical month a payment to JFGH for the share of the rent not covered by Medicaid is made automatically, and we write a check to to ALCO (which provides Chris's meds to the group home). There are often other bills for doctors and treatments not covered by Medicaid. We provide many of his personal products for the group home (bandages for his stomach tube, soap, shampoo, lotions, wipes, etc.), often by ordering them on Amazon, and we give the group home cash for his account, which they use for their outings or other expenses. His Social Security covers much of this, except when there are sizable medical or other unusual expenses (sometimes for special dental work or wheelchair repair).
