3. Funny thing is, my wife looked like that when the Ins Company said "let her die" in their own

special way by delaying her mastectomy for six months (after scheduled) even tho she was only supposed to be off the shrinking chemo for a specific period, to allow her to get a bit stronger for surgery. The Oncologist said this was quite common (except for the delay in care due to the insurance company shenanigans).

They saved a little money because the plastic surgeon the general surgeon wanted on hand in case she needed some skin from somewhere else to close the wound was taken out of the planning so they would let her have her surgery. The wound did not close properly and never healed leaving her in constant pain with an open cancerous wound until she died 20 months later.

The other thing besides them saving some money was in the last month of waiting for them it grew quite large and metasticized changing the prognosis radically.

Need I post her picture? Do you really think they will stop killing people when we are all mandated to buy whatever crappy policy they offer? Will they stop saying let her die, we want the doctors to do it more cheaply?

They also insured I went into massive debt for their angelic control of the situation.

You are confusing health care with a product that supplies no health care whatsoever but rather dictates what care will not be delivered, for this they get billions a year.

Watch Michael Moor's documentary and you will learn of many more accounts that will clarify that they are not health care providers like doctors and nurses by rather heartless vultures feasting on the needs of the sick in order to maximize profit.

I will not cheer the vultures on as a systemic and terrible problem is further codified into the system.
