Insurance

Today I asked my husband and his brilliant mind to write about health insurance. It's a post i struggled to write because it's emotional for me. Shelby is always good at translating Nicole and also getting out what he needs said as eloquently as possible. I'm not saying I agree 100% with all of his opinions although I think this is one instance our shared experience leads us to the same conclusions. Neither of us want to turn this blog into a political argument but we do feel our voice is getting lost in the anger of 2016 politics. Take it away, babe...
It is going to be a long post so if you don't feel like reading here is the overview, it is about health care, I feel both parties have it wrong, and I hate the fact that 10 sec sound bites are the "solution." It is a complex issue that will never be solved with rhetoric. This post is from my view point navigating the system with a kid with a rare terminal illness so every one's mileage will vary. That being said the long form is below if you decide to read it.
