hollybrookeHealth Care Reform!
What does this mean for me? This means health insurance will be made available to me, even if it isn't free. I won't be limited to just vision and dental. Yay America!
I can't help but wonder how it will effect Mom, though. I haven't made much of an effort to post about it on LJ, but in a nutshell, Mom had another MS attack. Well, I'm pretty sure that's what it was. But because she had been doing her infusion treatments, it obviously didn't attack as badly as it would normally have attacked. This time around, it was her throat. She's okay now, for the most part. For the first few days since she got home, it was still kind of hard to understand her (sounded more like she had gauze stuffed in her mouth, like she had just gotten back from the dentist). Today, she was sounding much better. But still....those treatments are expensive, and their insurance plan is kind of weird. Especially since Dad's been laid off for about a year now.
So. Now I will have to make the time to talk with Micki in payroll about what this means for us workers. Because I have questions.
