GO AND RENT "SICKO" by Michael Moore right now. Put it in your Netflix Queue right this moment! And then invite all of your friends. I don't know why it took me so long to see it, but I am angry, fired up, sad, and I cried all the way through it even though I'm not supposed to cry because it's bad for my sinuses.
In my few adult years so far- I've been turned down from health insurance because of medical issues. I've been dumped from it for being ten days late with payment. I've had to decide between buying health insurance ($300/mo) and stocking the fridge with healthy food. I've had my health insurance charge me three times as much for medical treatment what the doctor would have taken if I paid him cash. You need to see this movie and you need revolt with me to get us all socialized medicine. But just in case, I'm working even harder now on my French so I can play music and retire in Paris where the doctors make house calls.
Love,
Moorea.
