Poor girl. Sounds like she probably would have died either way. Her parents are obviously grief stricken and are being used as pawns by the "party of compassion"

As usual.

Her brother announced a lawsuit against Cigna even before her funeral. The sad fact is there are not enough livers to go around and I’m sure the decision was in the best interest of those who had already been waiting. Cigna had paid for a bone marrow transplant and she started shutting down afterwards. It would have been a waste of a needed liver for someone who stood a chance at living much longer than 6 months. Does anybody out there believe that Universal Healthcare would have done better by this girl?

Mr. Edwards, a former trial lawyer and North Carolina senator, wants to offer a government-run public plan, like Medicare, that would be open to all Americans. This could be a step toward the single-payer plan that many liberals want, and Mr. Edwards has said that it's a good opportunity to test that idea's popularity. He also wants to cap insurance-company profits.
