next time someone bashes ACA
Send them to me. I would love to write President Obama and let him know he has probably saved my son's life
My son recently got health insurance, and then got into a car accident. (he is fine) However; they did a CT and found something on his kidney. Apparently he has hyperechoic renal cell carcinoma, they will know more after his MRI. I have tried to do some reading on it, but didn't learn much. If someone knows something about RCC please let me know. I do know it measures 3.7 x 2.7 cm. again any info would be grateful
My point is, had he not got health insurance we never would have known he had RCC. Hopefully it was caught soon enough.
Sounds to me like you should thank the car accident. They would have done the CT with, or without, insurance. Now all your son has to do is figure out how he's going to pay the deductibles that are going to be coming.

2. So you got yours
I'm happy for you, and for your son. I also know there are millions of people that DIDN'T get covered by ACA, even more when the Medicaid section was made voluntary (for the states that is). I also know many people that now have insurance and still can't afford the copay for the CT scan. So yeah, I'm a bit pissed off that the ACA left those people in the woods. And you realize that 50% of the folks that got support from the exchanges already were eligible for federal support for health insurance but didn't realize it. Were you one of those?
But do write Obama, he could probably use the letter.
New thread but it could be interesting.

If any is true,which is doubtful,he would have been treated regardless.

My brother who called me when Obamacare passed to gloat and said, "how does it feel to be paying for my insurance now?" Still doesn't have insurance. He is 53, doesn't work and lives with my Dad. Yes, he is a liberal. A raging incoherent victim.

My inlaws, who both voted for the Obamanation twice, are also in the same boat.
The gloating stopped when they figured out it wasn't going to be FREEEEEEEEEEEE.
They still do not have insurance.

My moonbat SIL, who voted for the SCOAMF, was telling me "now my daughters have healthcare coverage." I didn't ask her why her husband, who is an RN working on his B.S. in nursing, wasn't covering the family. That was before the increases came out (and no, I didn't point out the $6,000/family deductable, either). Haven't talked to them about it since.

Priceless.

The only thing that could make this better is if they were fined, taxed, penalized or whatever made up term the left used to shove this down our throats.

Took me one minute to Google. The DUmmie is full of shit.
However, this is rather interesting:
Smoking and misuse of certain pain medicines can affect the risk of renal cell cancer.

They live in red state hell here with me, so they've been immune to a lot of the BS so far.
I was so sick of hearing about it when they were gloating, that I still haven't decided if I want to pull a mopinko, and report them.

I just got a new job and there was going to be a gap in the insurance because it doesn't kick in for 60 days at the new place. My liberal FIL was all excited because he thought we'd end up on the exchange. It crushed his poor liberal heart when we got cheaper and better insurance through the insurance company directly.

Nice. Real nice.
However, it just underscores in bold, what these parasites are all about.
