Obama Care or is it?

This past weekend must have been the worst weekend I have ever had.

I underwent a form of Chemo Therapy that just took the life out of me.

Generally I am strong and wont wilt but this treatment took me way off my beaten path of being a hero and strong. I realized this weekend my soul and will  may be strong but my body is another story.  I had 3 days of a treatment that is suppose to repress MS and it repressed me so much I can barely hold my head up. The first day wasn't too bad with IV cocktail . I was told I was going to feel things and imagine things I never had before. I didn't feel it so I puffed it off. The 2nd day I woke up no back pain.. and felt a little tipsy but I chalked it off to a foreign chemical introduced to my body. The 3rd day I frankly don't remember. It was a fog. I know I was taken to the infusion center and I had a private bathroom. Food smelled like poop and I was far interested in eating. I lost 2 days . I slept from Saturday to Monday. Woke up with the jitters and all I want now is to take a shower and return to bed.

I never in my wildest dreams thought I would have to go under stage 3 treatment. I think now that I started this I would rather just allow time to take it's course and have my mind in full conscious. I have already swore to myself I will never and I mean never take this road again even though my family says I am looking better I sure dont feel it.

Now why am I writing this It's because of Obama Care. I could have done this in my home 2 years again and not leave for a infusion center but since I am over the magic age and I must take a "passport" insurance which is only a passport in name. I have to take myself to the Hospital where there's a million germs, and a million mistakes made. I have a huge hemotoma on my arm from the infusions first mistake and looking at it makes me think I was an excellent Technologist since that never happened to me since the orange I practiced on.

In my little room I sat there watching a 14 year old get infusion and her family crying they cant afford it with the new cost of insurance that they are presented with. The insurance said they would have to pay for the first 5 IVs My insurance said I have to pay for 20% of the total costs since this is not a "passport" Hospital and the other Neurologists are not experts in this field and you end up being sent to this group.

I somehow came home It's all blur to me but I should have been watched with my vitals. Obama care in the insurance community is a group of nurses who claim they review all the cases.  I was suppose to see a doctor from the Middle east who can't  speak English or barely could. Who placed me on a waiting list for a 6 months appointment. Meanwhile I was getting sicker and sicker without the new pill that represses this attacks. The day before my appointment I received a call that a Muslim child who was more important then I was needed my appointment and I was being placed on another wait list. This is Obama Care Folks.And it gets worse. Look at your insurance papers. Doctors who are in your network are mostly all foreigners.  They wash their hands in the sand and then discriminate against you because you are not one of them.

Obama is right there are no death panels. The treatment of the doctors or I should say lack of treatment of the doctors kill you. You dont have to be spoken to Just sit in an infusion center and watch.
