You would think they would have better insurance for people who have a sickness like that. They do..its called disability..they would rather pay for all my medical shit and pay me each month so i can sit at home and do nothing than help me with my medical bills..kinda messed up actually   sigreddasparks Posted at 12:49 pm on April 10, 2012 That is soo screwed up.
