Until 2009 I had spent the better part of my adult life without medical insurance, I was single parenting and my "ex" kept the kids insured and I had managed to stay healthy (I thought) up until then.

Then one day while I was "playing" with my dogs out in the yard I got this strange tightness in my chest. Honey drove me to the doctor and when I woke

Now thanks to good old poverty I get all my excellent health care for free thanks to Medicare and Medicaid supplement. I am very happy that you were able to gt fixed up when you had your attack. That was not a very pleasant experience for you, and could have been made much worse had you been confronted with a pile of bills, or worse yet, been set aside because you could not pay.
It's good to see you posting. I have missed your thoughtful and excellent posts.

I am GLAD you are a Medicare recipient. That should be the basic floor and standard of care for EVERY citizen, regardless of age, period.

and yes, we CAN afford it. We can afford cockamamie wars on the planet for countries who never wanted us there, we can afford to take care of our own, in the most basic way.

Bless you, dear lady.
