Too Nice

My sister, Jacy, called me today from the Doctor's office. She was getting some botox shots to loosen up her arm so she can start working with it a little more and just to relax it. (She was in a car accident and her arm isn't working too hot, if you didn't' know) Anyway, the office didn't get pre-authorization, and couldn't get ahold of anyone at the insurance, so she had to sign something saying we would pay for it if insurance wouldn't cover it.

Anyway, the convo went like this:
Jacy: "Hey, we don't know if insurance will cover the shots, so we might have to sign a paper saying we'll pay for them if they don't"
Me: "Ok, we can do that."
Jacy: "Well, it's expensive...a couple thousand" (she said the exact price)
Me: "Ok, well you want the shots, right?"
Jacy: "Yeah"
Me: "Well then sign the paper, and if insurance doesn't pay for it, we will"

How it should have gone:
Jacy: "Hey, we don't know if insurance will cover the shots, so we might have to sign a paper saying we'll pay for them if they don't"
Me: "Ok, we can do that."
Jacy: "Well, it's expensive...a couple thousand" (she said the exact price)
Me: "Oh."
(Silence)
Jacy: "What should I do?"
Me: "Well you know how I want a TV that goes on the wall."
Jacy: "you could still get that, they're not that much."
Me: "yeah, but you still need another session in your leg...why don't you just pick one or another?"

and I could've kept going like that forever...lucky for her, I was busy framing windows in the basement and couldn't mess with her....maybe next time she needs something important.
