I shared the story of my cousin, who would have died had it not been for Obamacare. He was 51, a farmer who before the ACA had no insurance. He was diagnosed with esophageal cancer. he was able to have great care due to the ACA. He is now recovering and actually plans to plant his crops this spring. People will die without it.

They want to hear about Uncle Fred who saw a new sign saying "we accept Obamacare" in his Dr.s office so he walked out before the Dr could ask about his guns and then died of an infected cut a week later. Thanks Obama.

She had seen a doctor a few weeks before hand but could not due to finances see him again
all she needed was a statin drug long before she saw that doctor but could not receive the care of a doctor due to money
My 14 1/2 grandaughter awoke one morning finding her mother dead on the floor (can you imagine yourself going through something like that?). The doctor's office had turned my daughter's account over to a collection agency and they called
me two weeks after she died. You conservative Republicans I hope spend a day in hell after you pass, I'd like the favor returned to you that you are so willing to let others suffer.
