In your country and mine, insurance is a legislated licence to steal. I'm so grateful that my health care is not on the insurance table. There may be wait lists, but everyone can have health care. witchypoo's last blog post..More Awards

I am one of those conserative people that wants health care for everyone and will probably vote for a democrat unless the republican starts talking more about health care for everyone. I have not blogged about our insurance issues, but I am seriously thinking of taking a job just to help with the costs. Blogversary's last blog post..clean those winter blahs away

Thanks for telling us all about Kyla. The more people who know, the better chance we'll get someone in the White House who actually cares about the whole effed-up health care system in the U.S. Ree's last blog post..Building Your Wings

Look at me, I'm blushing! Really, really, thanks...both for the award and the linking. The truth is I didn't realized this happened either, not until it happened to me. Kyla's last blog post..On the last day of insurance...

i am so glad you are bringing attention to Kyla’s struggle – it makes me sick that she has to endure this – how unnecessary it is and how tragic. for her and for so many like her – we need better choices now.

Well, this story just pierced my heart. I emailed the MOMocrats link to someone I know who writes about health insurance issues just like this over on DailyKos. This story is such a perfect example of everything that is wrong with our insurance system. It's all about the bottom line - Murder By Spreadsheet. Just because you *have* insurance does not mean you are covered for all conditions that will come up in your family. And as Kyla learned, they can drop certain types of coverage at a whim. It's heinous. tpgoddess's last blog post..Move 2008 - Week 9 check in

I can't even get health insurance. No one will cover me right now. My husband is self employed and that leaves no options for me as far as insurance goes. Sleeping Mommy's last blog post..Only in Oklahoma

It is hard when you have so many health issues that insurance won't even look at you unless you're gainfully employed. I'm a slave to mine but grateful for them. Grandy's last blog post..It doesn't get much better...
