My grievance is not political; all my
energies are directed to enjoying life and staying alive, and I have no
time for politics. For almost seven years I have fought and survived
stage-4 gallbladder cancer, with a five-year survival rate of less than
2% after diagnosis. I am a determined fighter and extremely lucky. But
this luck may have just run out: My affordable, lifesaving medical
insurance policy has been canceled effective Dec. 31.
My
choice is to get coverage through the government health exchange and
lose access to my cancer doctors, or pay much more for insurance outside
the exchange (the quotes average 40% to 50% more) for the privilege of
starting over with an unfamiliar insurance company and impaired
benefits.
She liked her doctors and wanted to keep them period. She liked her insurance and she wanted to keep it period. I guess Obama lying bold faced to the American people is going to end this persons fight against cancer. You can blame the evil insurance company but they are being forced by Obamacare to cancel their "substandard" policy that is keeping this woman alive. Hopefully Congress can change the grandfather clause on Obamacare in time before this woman loses her insurance and replaces it with something she cannot afford.
