I can’t imagine having to fight cancer while having the president and all his minions in government and media attacking me all day long.

There are coupons and program offered by drug companies and you would surprised at what is out there if you do the actual work and search for it. In many cases, people just arent aware of them. I found a coupon that dropped my cough medicine from $300 down to $20. Freebies are even available for migraine meds to people that qualify. My mother was getting imatrex straight from the manufacturer i believe for free.

The daughter of a friend has a congenital form of rheumatoid arthritis that manifested while she was in her teens. While this girl was still in nursing school and could not afford her meds, her physician obtained them for her for no charge. This allowed her to stay healthy and active, get her degree and go on to earn a good salary and benefits that cover the medications.

My insurance was compliant so my premiums haven’t gone up at all, but by my recent experience, health costs definitely have. Drastically.

My husband had a simple hospital outpatient surgery last March. It took less than an hour to perform and cost us out of pocket around $700.00.

Three weeks ago he had the same hospital outpatient surgery, which took the same amount of time to perform, no complications.

Expecting a slight increase, we were shocked, to say the least, when we received the hospital bill.

After our insurance paid out nearly $34,000.00 for this simple procedure — we’re left owing more than an additional $4,500.

“The Dexter Patch” is an hilarious name. “Dexter Morgan” is the name of the fictional serial killer who’s the protagonist in the just discontinued Showtime serial “Dexter.”

Since I'm not familiar with the TV show, I can't really appreciate the joke. But I can tell you that the town of Dexter, Michigan has probably been in existence since the nineteenth century. It just happens to be Ms. Boonstra's home town, so the left-leaning e-newspaper wrote this article to retaliate against her for her public criticism of Obamacare.

I doubt that the ownership of the "Dexter Patch" had the TV series in mind when they thought up that name, although I could be wrong.

It’s a cool series. Dexter works for the homicide division of the Miami, FL PD as a blood spatter technician and moonlights as a very productive serial killer who only kills other murderers who’ve escaped justice. Right now you can catch all eight seasons on either Netflix or the Showtime on Demand channel. Good entertainment that will last you for a long time.
