Ice-T made a quote. He said the jokes on us because while we are busy fighting about race, religion & other things the reality is no lives matter except of the wealthy to those in power.
This struck a cord in me because there is a new epilepsy medicine it's been out in other countries for years but just came to the US the end of last year. My insurance won't cover it & I can't afford to pay $1600 a month for it. Like most people I live pay check to pay check. I have money in my savings that I don't touch in case I need it ( like when I had to have the sewer pipe fixed) & I am trying to get myself out of debt that I go into 10 years ago.
Our Dr has appealed twice to the insurance & the next step is to send the state of NJ a check for 60 bucks with an appeal. For $60 they will decide if they will hear our case so the $60 does not guarantee they will even hear the Dr just that they will think about it & let us know. If they decide to hear what the Dr has to say then she has to call in & present our case.
Literally I have to beg them to force my insurance to cover a new med.
We have to keep a note book that he writes in everday so if they try to take away his disability payments we can prove he still has issues. Yesterday my husband said I just wrote in my book for the Dr that I felt normal after my shower today. It is so unusual for him to feel " normal" that we have to make a note of it for the Dr. Let that sink in a minute.
Seizures everyday & a medicine that is CBD based & people are having success with but it's either pay for the meds or my mortgage.
I think Ice -T is right the reality is no lives matter except of the wealthy to those in power
