Why did thousands of uninsured workers line up at LA free clinic forum?

Question by In Defense of ☭Marxism: Why did thousands of uninsured workers line up at LA free clinic forum?
I thought Everyone is insured under the free market?

One volunteer dentist who spoke to the local media said that conditions in Los Angeles were worse than in Brazil, where he has done equivalent charity work. “They have a nice system of public hospitals and clinics,” he said, referring to Brazil. A volunteer doctor, when asked about the difference between Third World conditions and those in Los Angeles, responded, “Here the people speak English.”

According to local press accounts, among those seeking help at the clinic were:

• A homeless man who camped outside in order to get glasses
• An unemployed grocery clerk needing a root canal
• A laid-off auto mechanic with back pain
• A laid-off office worker uninsured for two years
• A cancer patient who had exhausted her benefits under her HMO plan
• A community college student with sinus problems and blurred vision
• A laid-off security guard who needed glasses
• An unemployed grocery clerk with a toothache
• A woman whose children are covered under the state Medi-Cal plan but lacks insurance for herself
• A county government worker whose dental insurance deductibles were too high to afford treatment for her husband and three-year-old daughter
• A retired welder who lost his coverage while he was in the middle of getting dentures
• A couple, both employed, who between them needed dentures, a general physical, a breast exam and a pap smear
• A diabetic amputee who could not afford to buy needed drugs
• A retiree needing an X-ray for a lung problem
• A 70-year-old Vietnam vet who put off a root canal for two years because the VA hospital was overwhelmed with more urgent cases
• A 63-year-old woman who received her first new pair of glasses in five years
• A 46-year-old woman who had an abnormal pap smear last year but was unable to follow up because Medi-Cal denied her coverage.

Has anyone in the cancer forum on Y/A received a rather rude e mail claiming that tea cures cancer?

Question by Susie Q: Has anyone in the cancer forum on Y/A received a rather rude e mail claiming that tea cures cancer?

This person claims that tea / herbs is the cure for all cancer.
But that doesn’t give the person the right to call you what she called me. if you don’t agree..
Thanks — Chemo Angel
I do not believe they have found a cure for cancer by drinking tea or herbs.

Answer by LYNN in FL (suspended @#*%)
Not yet but wouldn’t that be nice? I think I’ll have a cup of tea instead of chemo today!
I bet tea doesn’t make your hair fall out as badly either.
People are idiots Suz…and they know how to type.

* I think I know the person you refer to but have not had the pleasure of a confrontation. I too am sorry you have to deal ith BS from people who honor no opinion but their own. Especially when they are clueless and do more harm than good.

In another cancer forum a member was diagnosed with metastasized breast cancer to several parts of her body?

metastasized cancer
by Pulmonary Pathology

Question by Dave: In another cancer forum a member was diagnosed with metastasized breast cancer to several parts of her body?
with chemotherapy her doctors give her two and a half years, but she does not want to go through it again. She decided not to subject her body to those poisons and try more holistic healing methods. And she is able to live with that decision.

Her husband wants to take her traveling and make a “Bucket List” but she only wants life to continue on without any special considerations.

I am wondering if things go bad, how bad will they get and what kind of life can she expect to live in the meantime? I understand the harsh treatments of cancer, I have seen what the treatments can do and it takes a toll on a person, but wouldn’t facing death do the same thing?

How does one come to a decision like this, if it was your loved one would you try and change their minds, and how would you go about it? Or, would you honor their decision and make it as easy on them as possible?

Best answer:

Answer by RKANTER
the decisions concerning death and dying are very personal and each person needs to make those decisions to make themselves happy. They should be able to make there piece with God there own way and then be supported In their decision.
