Hey, it still sounds better than all those people over here who don't go to a doctor at all because they cannot afford it (they go to the ER instead, which causes a whole other set of problems). I'm still catching up on my various doctor appointments after several years with no insurance, then a lot of years with really expensive-but-crappy private insurance, under which I still could not afford a lot of preventive care. Ridiculous. I have to wait four months for a routine GYN appointment, anyway, even with private care.

Thank goodness she was admitted. That sounded really bad.
