Hello Isabel & viewers of this video, I have a request and as this moving story appears to be a good place to reach the people I'm looking for, I hope it's okay that I post here.

I'm an actor & theatre practitioner in London, currently working on a verbatim project on the AMERICAN HEALTH CARE SYSTEM and needing willing participants to share their views & experiences. Please click my Channel for more info. I'm looking forward to hearing from you, Isabel, or any page visitor. Thanks.

papillionbella, the gov. isn't making choices about your health care, just paying for it.

[hlkolaya]

papilionbella, really? because everyone i've talked to who has socialized health care say that there is little to no waiting for any of that.

[hlkolaya]

papilionbelle, there are many families where both people are working and still cannot afford to work. she cannot work. it's not a choice. do you now what lupus is? (as she mentions towards the end of the video) it's extremely painful and many sufferers can barely walk or move. it IS up to the government to provide health care. that's part of taking care of your people.

And you need to check your facts. There are no waiting lists for coverage here, and if I am in urgent need of any test, I get it immediately. Its only when testing isn't urgent that we have to wait a month, two at most. But I'd rather wait and not pay than live in the U.S. and be homeless from medical debt, because I totally would be right now.

Papillionbella -- do you know anything about any of the medical disorders she has? Why don't you look up Lupus in a medical journal. It certainly isn't a easy illness to deal with. I should know. I have it. And its hard to work and manage the disease, but I guess you'd rather accuse her of being lazy than think about that.  Luckily, if I didn't want to work, I'd still be covered, because I live in Canada.

you Americans talk of being autonomous, i.e., you mentioned and I quote: "You people that want the government to cover you is just sad..."

The Government is no charity, Democracy; you - fellow Citizen - installed a government in order to give - and sustain - laws and the common good of it's peoples.

go WATCH THE MOVIE and become informed before you say stupid things like that.

She may not be working, but her HUSBAND is working. She is married. Spouses are supposed to be covered under most health insurance plans. So she should be covered, point blank.

the previous responder to your video is a complete asshole. its quite apparent all he is concerned with is himself.  i am very proud you have come forward to explain your situation. lets just see if any drug company will be motivated to help you out!!!!!!!!!!!
