(2,522 posts)What happened to you should not happen in any country as prosperous as this one.
I admire that you have found peace with your situation. Best wishes, and hopefully what seem like the final few months stretch out longer than you expect.

On a more practical note, short of setting up a real national health care system, which isn't happening any time soon, what else can we do? It seems wrong that your health insurance company can deny payment even when they acknowledge you need treatment, just because they think someone else should foot the bill. Maybe a simple law requiring health insurance companies to cover their customers' treatment (I mean, isn't that what they're ostensibly for?). The company can always sue the other insurance companies later.
