Here We Go Again

It doesn't matter where you go or what you do, you can't help but run into all the folks rolling under the bus tires of this debate called Health Care Reform.

A young man, 22, married with a small daughter.  This young man, he's a wonderful worker, and a great father I understand.  Unfortunately, his pregnant wife was having problems with the latest pregnancy, and the docs had to take the baby early.  The baby is about a pound and is not doing well.  Neither is Momma.

Mother and baby are out of state at a teaching hospital and medical center for acute care.

While Congresspeople are dilly-dallying around, making inappropriate jokes and references to the Holocaust as they feel it pertains to the current debate, this young family is struggling.

Dad hasn't been employed long enough to have his health benefits yet.  This isn't the employer's decision, it's the insurer's decision.

Gee, I wonder what it's going to cost this young family - if Mom and baby survive.  And what if they don't?

Are any of those people on Capitol Hill going to come help them?
