Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

Hard to hold down a job to pay for rent/mortgage, car payments, food, utilities, etc. While battling cancer. Your medical expenses may be covered to a small extent but you don't live for free when you are sick.

Hold on a minute. Does this mean health insurance in the States is linked to employment? So you lose your job, you lose your health insurance?

That's rather rude, and frankly, uncivilised.
