Where's the freedom? If corporations control our destiny, where is the "freedom"?

My Dad is finally being ambulated to an emergency room per insurance RULES.

He was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor five months ago, had surgery and chemo and radiation.

His follow-up tests showed another growth albeit small.

In the last few weeks, he has lost all control, has become paralyzed on his entire left side of his body.

He and my Mom have LITERALLY lived in fear of insurance companies.

He may die because of the choice presented: extend life (in spite of the private profit sucking RULERS) or loose everything he earned in his life.

DICK CHENEY should live in the rest of our lives. He would have been dead, decades ago!!!

1. There is no freedom at all other than freedom to suffer

Sorry about your father , it must be horrifying for you .

My youger brother died of liver cancer mainly because his insurance capped and then they told him there was nothing more they could do . They put him in a hospice and told him he had a week maybe . I can't imagine what went through his mind knowing he had days left .

2. My parents are going through the same thing, instead of living

in peace and trying to heal from their ailments they spend their time on the phone fighting with their insurance company, the company doctor and their own doctor.

They are terrorized by their insurance company and the company they work for. Threating them they will withhold payments, and their pay.

3. May I make a suggestion?

One way to not be a slave to prescriptions and doctors for the rest of your life, is to do a little research on the big benefits of extreme nutrional therapy.Despite what the media likes to project, there is a lot of hope out there. You have nothing to lose by researching your own health options, I mean your parents. Good Luck and take care.

4. I had to buckle down and confront them.

His condition WAS AN EMERGENCY.

It took three people to get him upstairs to the bedroom.

They were worried about "referrals" and operating per insurance rules!!! :cry:

They literally live in fear of losing everything because the insurance companies won't cover his condition.

IT IS SICK!!!

:cry: My Daddy is dying. The fucking COMPANY is ruling the destiny and choices of all our lives and that is bullshit!!!
