Anyone who has not seen Sicko, needs to pick up a copy to watch soon. It was very interesting. I saw it when it came out at the theater. The reason I am thinking of this now is because LeCount and I are officially insured now (after over 1 year without insurance). On January 1st our insurance coverage began. It's not a moment too soon because I need an antibiotic for a sinus infection, and the cost of my preventative migraine medications are draining us... So, why am I not happy? Because we still do not have our insurance cards. The insurance company says that we are insured. We can go to the doctor and get prescriptions, and they will reimburse us after we submit a claim. YUCK!!! Can I just have my card?!?!?! I am insured, but I still have to front the money to be seen by a doctor and pick up my prescriptions!? My head hurts, and this sinus infection is getting the best of me. The last thing I want to do is pay $300 to see my doctor! They are taking the premiums out of LeCount's check every two weeks, so I shouldn't have to come up with more money to see a doctor. I am very frustrated. Of course, it doesn't help that I don't feel well... I guess it's off to Minute Clinic in the morning. :(Saturday, January 3, 2009

I actually own SICKO. I love Michael Moore. Sorry to hear all the hassles you guys are going through. I really would like to see the bill HR676 discussed in the film passed.
