Hello,
I very much enjoyed reading your survivor story in More Magazine's March 2012 edition. I loved how you told your second husband to get permission from his mom prior to accepting his hand. I was saddened to read that you lost such a dear soon after; but fortunately, your current husband sounds like a gem too.
The only issue that bothered me was your seeming resistance to universal health care. In the article, you note that health insurance was an issue for you and your daughter. America provides some form of health care for the elderly and the poor. It's only reasonable that people who work full time (even though it may be through a combination of jobs) should also be covered. I wonder how many times, while you worked & struggled to get your education, while it was just you and your daughter, did you fail to take her or yourself to the doctor because you could not afford it? I believe that if everyone (including employers) puts money into a big pot,everyone can get at least basic health care. Those who can afford it, can put in extra for extra services. If third world countries can do it, why not the greatest country on earth?
