I'm extremely lucky that my husband is unionized, since so few workers are anymore. We have the best insurance. I have several health issues, the worst is three herniated discs in my back, and we paid nothing for my surgeries, MRIs, or other tests. I need a referral and approval for surgeries/hospital stays, but they are pretty good about that and getting it done quickly. If I didn't get the approval, they would charge me at most $500 deductible and $100 co-pay. For most people they would be happy to only have to pay that. I find it so hard to believe that our country is so backwards that we don't have universal healthcare. Our pro-corporate politicians have brain washed us against our own interests so that instead we pay ridiculous prices for healthcare or go without instead.Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13714518339153250453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3939140578725059331.post-2214015022154978042011-04-28T21:09:29.968-05:002011-04-28T21:09:29.968-05:00@GenkiOriana- Things usually have a way of working...@GenkiOriana- Things usually have a way of working out it seems! I'm sure it will this time too. You can either laugh or cry and it is way too draining to go around moping all the time.

Best wishes for as smooth a time as you can make of it, and a return to school and work as quickly as it can be. :) Cheap products can be fun to hunt for, too. :)GenkiOrianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15282713639969055706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3939140578725059331.post-43144176766729790012011-04-27T17:00:35.537-05:002011-04-27T17:00:35.537-05:00@Ki Thank you so much.

And one of the few where I live who have health insurance.<br /><br />Haha at the first world problems! At least we have access to quality health care and have our basic needs met.

Sorry to hear about it.<br /><br />On the plus side, low-buys can be a good thing. If you do break it, it'll only be for the things that you really want, and you get to shop your stash which is an excise to get creative. There's lots of people, including me, on a low buy right now so you're not alone! (oh first world problems!)Robynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16718808617292111069noreply@blogger.com
