I have not spoken about this publicly until now. In January, I was admitted into the hospital for emergency surgery. As far as anybody knew, it was not a preexisting condition that caused the issue. I almost did not make it out of surgery. I woke up on a respirator. I have been recovering most of this year.
The reason I mention this now is not for sympathy. Thankfully, I have insurance through @xtianaddams' job. As a musician & an artist paying for insurance monthly was next to impossible.
Without @xtianaddams' insurance we would have owed 250,000 (plus) dollars this year. If Obamacare was available to me I would most certainly be thankful because I am pretty sure it would have saved my life and kept me out of bankruptcy. Please share. #obamacare #shutdown
