WTF?! Are you serious???That would definitely be cool, but no rush.
Hey Jason, CNN just had a story on about Nevada's UMC medical center and how they had to discontinue outpatient cancer treatment. They showed the floor I went to to visit my brother at the hospital. Sad situation there - they pointed out that earning 8.65 an hour puts one over the income limit for state medical aid. It's better to be on welfare than trying to earn a living.
How can the state of Nevada justify that decision? $8.65 is only $1.10 over minimum wage in Nevada. That should definitely qualify someone for Medicaid.
How is the state's decision going to affect your brother's healthcare? He still qualifies as being disabled right?08-17-09 02:05 PM - Here Kasi, print this info,
