Bobbi,
I wish I had the answers to your problems. Sorry to
say I don't. I don't have the answers to my own
problems. Is there any way you could qualify for a
state insurance program? I wish I knew where to tell
you to start. I don't understand how this country can
let so many people fall thru the cracks. They can
provide health care to the President & the military,
why not the rest of us? Don't give up. Hopefully
someone on this site has the answers to your problems.
Hang in there!
Take Care,
Rita
