I love our universal health system...during chemo/rads.surgery I only had to concentrate on ME!!
Everything was covered, and I still had a hard time ..I shudder to think what some people go through that don't have this, I literally only had to to worry about the stress and side effects of tx rather than the cost.
I've also been paid approx one half or more of my salary to stay home since dx in '05! Even the arimidex is free!
In saying this someone is paying for me now, but I paid for them while working for years..
