    American health care is fucked. That said:

    I watched a promo for St Jude a few years back. They cover all expenses for families so they can focus on their kids. You should donate. They’re awesome.

      I feel like it’s a no win situation.

      Here in Canada, my coworker has needed back surgery since last year in September. He just got into a specialist for a consultation last week to get surgery scheduled. He’s been living for almost an entire year on light duty at work with back pain.

      I feel over the past 10 years our Government has mismanaged their financials and our healthcare and education systems have taken the beating for it. Public services are only as good as the people who are trusted to safeguard them.

        Sounds like your coworker is getting healthcare.

        In America he’d just suffer for the rest of his life and then off himself when he was too old to handle the pain and still work.
