Update: as of 10/12 the news is looking better. The HIV meds I’m buying on the black market are working and my viral load is coming back down. I’ve got a bit of a road ahead to get back to where I was before I ran out of money, but at least now the trend is heading the other way.
This fight over health care reform has left me shaking my head in consternation. I’m astonished that the people who are screaming socialism the loudest don’t seem to realize the irony in their objections.
If this reform doesn’t go through and these pills I’m buying off the black market turn out to be fake, my life expectancy is 18 to 20 months. I live in the wealthiest, most powerful nation on earth, and yet I have to go to India to by medication to save my own life.
I’m not asking for a hand out. I’m asking for a life line, a chance to save myself. They would rather stand and watch me drown just to prove theirs is the right argument.
I’ve already buried friends who died for no other reason than they could not get insurance. I just never thought I’d be counting myself among them.
Pet Peeves of my own…so in a way I’m obsessing over something here but I believe it is very real.
Ut oh, It’s a Randy Rant!
Beware… I let loose with a VENT in this post. Someone get matches, I vented and its a stinker!

Why people should on me…a personal note to those who are trying to help…please don’t.
