My Cousin did not have any Health Insurance Coverage by choice (I assume).
Have no idea why but I guess she thought other things took precedent, like buying her Harley.
A smoker, she was recently diagnosed with Lung Cancer. She was immediately put on an Obamacare Plan and is receiving top notch Treatment at a famous Cancer Clinic.
I’ve only been paying for my Medical Coverage for the past 45 Years and I was diagnosed with Leukemia 10 years ago. Our current Healthcare Premiums (2 Adults) are $1,900 a Month.
Tell me who the Idiot is here? It sure isn’t her.
BTW - Don’t get me wrong. I love her and I want her to beat this, but I bit my lip when she told me how she felt victimized when she was first Diagnosed and a couple of Doctors wouldn’t see her without her having Coverage. She even blamed the Republicans.
A few Phone Calls later and she is Golden. She is responding to Treatment and her Prognosis is good. When this all started, she was told she only had six Months left.
Medicare, at least, requires a selldown. She’d have to sell that Harley.
But there is no way we can generate this kind of unicorns and skittles of ourselves. Someone had to sacrifice, and those goats are getting restless now.
Medicare => I mean, Medicaid
