    That sounds dreadful, sorry to hear. Out of curiosity, has that changed the way you'd vote? As in, you'd pick a candidate based on their health care program?

      Anyone who thinks we don't need health insurance for everyone doesn't understand how insurance works and/or has never been in a compromising health situation. The more people have health insurance, the cheaper it gets. Taking away the incentive to profit for healthcare sounds good to me, too. I truly don't understand arguments against healthcare for all, because there's no financial argument against it that makes sense, unless you one of those that profits from people been somehow unhealthy. But politics isn't about being rational, it's about power & influence & control, and that makes me sad.

        Your story is incredible. I hope you continue to share it as frequently as possible. It's the only way people will start to wrap their heads around why things need to be changed.
