Oh Glenda I so glad I don't live in America. It seems that if you are ill you are constantly kept poor by the system it's either that or suffer the disease $ 4900 that's $400 a month + $235 insurance. That's a lot to have to pay when you have a chronic illness....
I just hope it works for you and you can afford the payments
Jim crazy about the costs of insurance,I was paying $700 a month plus the $4900 until our President started what is called affordable health-care.I do get some help from the government.Once i get the $4900 out of the way i am covered 100%.But it sure takes alot of my Soc.Sec. Disability check.I am just grateful I get my $906 a month.As i said thank goodness for my husband's good income cause I don't have alot left after I pay for my coverage.When I get 65 in 2016 Feb. I'll get what is called Medicare for $110 a month which they will take out of my $906 and I'll be covered at 80% then i'll need an extra policy to pay the 20% they don't cover.Most people don't want to get older,I can't wait so I get the benefits.Ha My husband has 100% coverage from our VA system.He did serve our country and they pay for meds hosp and anything he needs.We are grateful for the Veterans Administration. Take care my friend
You really don't want to get old ... Beleive me it's not much fun
My transatlantic friend
[Yes,it's not good to wish ones life to go a little quicker but only for the Health Care savings.I really don't want to get old.Ha But I am lucky compared to some who have things alot worse.My age will get here one way or not.All up to the good Lords plan for me.My Dad is 86 yrs old and he is in good health.He does drive me crazy ,he lost another checkbook.So we put a stop on the 4 checks that he lost,so they can't be cashed.This is about the 4th time.I am the power of attorney over his money and health.But i hate to take anything away from him.You know now i am the parent and he is the kid.I tried to get the Dr to take his drivers license away but he passed the test .I told the Dr he doesn't drive too good i got a few phone calls about him running people off the road.So at least i have a clear conscience if he happens to wreck into someone.My niece helped me delete some of my posts.It's a little chilly here in Pa. USA.Heard it's going to warm up.I hope you and Eileen have a good day.My husband and i have been married for 44yrs and together 5 yrs prior.As i have said before we raised each other.
