Re: Tough President!
Thanks, I appreciate it, but I'm ok, I'm not worried about me. I have alternate healthcare that will take care of me. I've been a bit more fortunate than others.
The problem is, many, many other vets out there do not have alternate healthcare, or have alternate healthcare that will not cover pre-existing conditions, especially something like this, and cannot afford it on their own. So they will either be denied care for service related injuries, or will be granted care on credit which they won't be able to pay for, have hteir credit ruined, and put them even further in the hole.
I received a call from my insurance company a few weeks ago. It turns out the military hospital which gave me treatment for my shoulder tried to bill them for a small fortune, and it was denied. I told them good, do not ever pay the military hospital should they bill them.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, scotch in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming HOOOOYA !!!!!
