Our health insurance is going up to $900 a month at the first of the year. I am essentially bed ridden and that insurance barely pays for anything now. If he isn’t the person he’s claiming, and goes back to that single payer nonsense, I might as well eat the end of my pistol, as I’ll have to live the rest of my life in blinding pain.

Please write to Donald. He's extremely responsive to stories and situations like yours. You may wind up being the very person who sets his mind in stone about ending Obamacare, and instituting a free market solution to health care.

I’ve thought about doing that with a couple of candidates.

The thing that stopped me is I didn’t want people feeling sorry for me.
When my hands began to fade from the neuropathy, and I had to stop working, I guess we would have been eligible for all the entitlements.
I just couldn’t swallow my pride enough to apply for them (maybe a mistake in retrospect).
I even felt guilty about applying for disability.
I was diagnosed in 2004, and with the help of pain meds I kept working for 8 years.
Even now though I can’t stand or walk more than 5 feet, I’ll see one of those commercials about our service men that have had half their body blown off, and question why anyone should help me.
I’ll definitely consider the suggestion.
Thanks.
