"It's only when we truly know and understand that we have a limited time on earth- and that we have no way of knowing when our time is up- that we will begin to live each day to the fullest, as if it was the only one we had." Elisabeth Kurler-Ross
Those of us who don't have insurance simply don't go to the hospital unless it's life or death. Then we simply fill out all the papers for billing and they sometimes reduce the bill some based on your income. Then you make payments. My DH and I have about $13,000 in medical we are paying on from the baby's birth and then his spinal injury about 3 months later. It's hard, but it's life. You either get by or you give up.
