Omgoodness. She went thru a whole lot. I recently had a bone marrow transplant for acute myeloid leukemia at this point, I probably have about a million $ of treatment. Something not even as serious can bankrupt a person. There was no time either. The day of diagnosis, I was hospitalized for a month for the first treatment. It’s not cheap. Can’t imagine what would have happened without my insurance. Well, actually I do - I wouldn’t be here because there’d be no transplant.
It’s free if you don’t get treatment.
BTW, they gave the hospital strict instructions NOT to give certain lifesaving treatments. They did anyway and she ended up with a six figure bill. It was eventually mostly forgiven.
We have a friend who had stage four breast cancer. She’s been cancer free now for seven years. No treatment. Well, except for the Gerson method.
My friend from high school had cancer and he did do Chemo. It wiped it out, but he needed a second round. BEfore the second round they did a test to see how he was progressing. He was done. He didn’t need a second round. The doctor was very excited and asked him if he had changed anything. He said, “Yes, I’ve been taking medical marijuana.” The doctor got physically angry.
My wife and I rarely do restaurants and keep ourselves healthy - and we trust the great healer. The same one the apostle Paul used when he was bitten by the snake.
