LOL !!
That is brilliant. Do you know the origin?
” One site said that the lady did have insurance but the deductible was high.”
Barry said “ She couldn’t afford health insurance and put off her exams.”
There are a ton of resources for women without health insurance who need a breast exam and mammography.
Barry either is too dumb to know that or he prefers to demagogue the issue.
Using a dead woman for his political purposes is just so vile.
” Saint John’s Women’s Center, in cooperation with Madison County Imaging, P.C.,
is offering discounted mammograms
for $55 from April 19 through May 31, 2010.”
” The American College of Radiology (ACR) is urging women to register for National Mammography Day, which is October 20.
More than 1100 accredited mammography facilities will be participating in the annual event, offering discounted or free mammograms.”
“ ACR-accredited mobile mammography units across the nation
will be scheduling screening examinations for low-income, uninsured, or underinsured women. “
The American Cancer Society
The National Cancer Institute
The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation
The National Alliance of Breast Cancer Organizations (NABCO)
The Y-ME National Breast Cancer Organization and the American College of Radiology can help women in need get a mammography.
Too bad Our National Creep didn’t inform women of those options instead of sending the message-
you find a lump and don’t have insurance, you can never get a mammogram.
Great. Two thousand years from now when archeologists dig her up they’ll think our civilization was a really stupid one.
