(My parents are going through this right now. My mom is on her last nerve right now.)

Medical insurance is a pain
It will one day
Drive people insane

They keep saying things are covered
Then in the mail
You recieve a letter
Saying it isn't covered
And never has been

They also say
That you can cover your child
Until age 25
But at the age of 23
They mess up
And say your child
Isn't covered at all

Medical insurance
Is sometimes
So hard to understand
You think your getting
Good service
When their service
Isn't good at all

Cold hands means a warm heart

Isn't this the truth! You'd think someone, somewhere could fix this mess we're in for the sake of our health and sanity.

Good luck to your parents, Marti

Ouch!

What is life without poetry and adventure?

Boy do I KNOW that feeling! I'm stuck in an HMO!! Right now I REFUSE to go to the doctor's because the only one I'm approved for localy is a QUACK!! If you get a sinus infection, he gives you Amoxicillan...if your like me and get them 3-4 times a year and Amox. doesn't work anymore...he gives it to you anyway. Then he wants to refer you to another doctor who gives you the same THING!! For an additonal $10 on your co-pay of course! It's almost enough to make you want to move to CANADA!!! Tell your parents I said "good luck".
