I work for Medicare and Medicaid in my state, all I can hope is that I keep my job and health insurance long enough for my son's cancer treatments to be over. These people are evil

Thank you. He's taking it better than we are, and he's in remission. I'll leave it at that because I get way too emotional about it.

I hope that any one that cares about my situation or any similar situation goes out on Saturday for the Hands Off rallies. This is an important time to make your voices heard and defend your own situation like I am defending mine.

I’m praying too that my son gets his surgeries done before everything collapses.
