But even with that plan, we plowed through our savings. My portion on the doctors, surgeries, chemo, radiation, hospitals....was still about $14,000. Not to mention the six months I took off work, at a reduced salary. I cannot imagine if we had no health care. We would have been wiped out.Pseudohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10430783970802030846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6689735678964373295.post-73629721489023452242008-10-04T04:19:00.000-07:002008-10-04T04:19:00.000-07:00Absolutely.

I'm still paying off debt from the ONE month that XH was disqualified from his union insurance and DD went to the hospital for something minor. Over 5k...craziness! Imagine if it had been the whole year? Year after year?Nataliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14178049413978018095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6689735678964373295.post-33204262912283946502008-10-03T19:44:00.000-07:002008-10-03T19:44:00.000-07:00AMEN, sister!

We are soon going into our first year of cancer fighting and am so thankful, whether we pay alot to still have insurance.
