Guaranteed Healthcare

I have sent in my story but needed to add one more thing. I wrote our President and Senators about taxing the gaming industry for even one nickel of every dollar Americans spend could go into programs to benefit us when we needed it. They could create a Federal Lottery so people could choose how to spend the recreation dollar.

I had a heart attack last month. Something in my left back shoulder area has constricted the blood flow to my heart. I tried to get workers compensation for the back injury I sustained in 2005 when pulled and twisted by big boxes on a conveyor belt. The pain in my left back shoulder has been constant and severe since the injury. I had to use company doctors and could not see family doctors.

To make this short, my story is already online. The Wall Street Journal published it in November 2007. My husband and I are in the process of selling our house, we had an estate sale last week, and we are moving to Belgium for health care reasons(I am a dual national and there are numerous doctors studying Ehlers-Danlos over there).

In 1992, while employed by Arizona state government, I tested positive for Epstein Barr. I was told that it was treatable and was put on a regiment of meds. By early 1996, I was experiencing severe body 'aches', while also having contracted a parasite and fracturing my tail bone.
