My daughter died. Our story aired a year later. Another year later, so around 2 years after my daughter's death, I received a hospital bill for a little over $3,000, for her initial few weeks of ICU care. I never acknowledged it. I couldn't bring myself to call the hospital to setup a payment plan, say my daughters name in the same sentence as a dollar amount again. We haven't heard a peep since.
