Breast cancer, health insurance and an apology to President Obama
A message to 'Obamacare' haters [The Reply]
I found out three weeks ago I have cancer. I'm 49 years old, have been married for almost 20 years and have two kids. My husband has his own small computer business, and I run a small nonprofit in the San Fernando Valley. I am also an artist. Money is tight, and we don't spend it frivolously. We're just ordinary, middle-class people, making an honest living, raising great kids and participating in our community, the kids' schools and church.
We're good people, and we work hard. But we haven't been able to afford health insurance for more than two years. And now I have third-stage breast cancer and am facing months of expensive treatment.

Is the Republican answer really to "let her die"? When did Americans helping Americans become dreaded "socialism"?
I wish the right wing would explain it to me.
