    I don't know if it's the forum or my ISP, but I keep getting dumped :(

    I love Tom Petty more as the "guy" than as the musician. He grew up in the same area as I did (Gainesville, FL) and my brother worked with his mom until her death when Tom was about 14 or 15. His dad was a brittle diabetic who wasn't too good about watching what he ate after his wife died, so...

    Yep, I know that. My brother totally supports interstate insurance regulation even though it would likely take a bite out of his business. But, he's not a "money motivated" individual, thank goodness.

    What do they expect me to do? Declare bankruptcy or die. They don't really care which. <sigh>

    The ability to create interstate groups would really help a lot. Limiting groups based on individual states drives down competition, thus drives up costs. IMHO, anyway :)

    I don't currently have health care insurance, either. I'll soon turn 63 and probably won't be able to afford insurance until I get Medicare at age 65. My brother owns two insurance agencies and he can't find reasonably priced insurance for me and I'm in good health. "Obamacare" ain't gonna...

    Good for you for letting them have it! It's an unfortunate mistake on their part. The person who initially screwed up probably feels badly about it. Maybe this will cause them to re-evaluate how they deal with these situations so it doesn't happen again. I truly think that many of these...

    This Health Care reform crap is going to totally screw up our health care system. When Nancy Pelosi said, "we'll have to pass it before we know what's in it" is very telling. The more that comes out, the more bleak it sounds for the majority of us "little folks." Oh lordy, don't even get me...

    Arrrrrrrrrrrgggggggghhhhh! Holy sh!!t, what an eff-up on their part. <big sigh> I'm sure you used up a month's supply of adrenalin because of their mix up! ((((HUGS))) I hope you came home and had a couple glasses of wine to get yourself calmed down!

    Hehehe. Yeah, with the time/day difference between the U.S. and Australia, it's enough to boggle one's mind, isn't it? :)

    Not really, Christina. Her calcium is still high, but it's dropped a bit closer to normal range. Tonight I called our doctor in Seattle, who became a friend of ours before we moved to Florida. She's amazed that Joyce is still alive, given all her medical issues. We just keep plugging along...
