Everyone deserves what I have. I am no one special. My life is not worth more than the next person’s. I did not work harder than others. I was fortunate.
Now in the recovery stages of breast cancer, I know that all people deserve the care and treatment I received without going bankrupt or worrying about paying for their care or losing their health insurance because of a pre-existing condition. No parent should have these worries for their children.
Affordable health care for all is a right. There is no one in our country who should suffer because of lack of health insurance—no one.
