For fourteen years, I had paid for my so-called health care insurance with diligence each month. This was the NON-PROFIT FOUNDATION, Kaiser Permanente, FOR THE RECORD. Upon my college graduation in 1992, I was diagnosed with a severe illness. Kaiser Permanente denied ALL coverage for this illness, stating they exclude those types of illnesses. Eventually, they also deemed this illness as pre-existing anyway. Well, the prescription medications alone cost around $4,000.00 per month; I had to go on permanent Disability and, further, I had to become technically indigent in order to qualify for Medi-Cal to recieve the necessary medications and treatment. Eighteen years later, I am still on Disability and Medi-Cal, denied the opportunity to work, as these so-called health care insurance companies will not treat my particular illness. My income is $850.00 a month; if I make any more than $1,000.00 per month, I will lose my health care benefits. Just to make things perfectly clear, I got my dewgree from the University of California at Santa Barbara in Political Science with an emphasis on International Relations, specifically between US-USSR-China. I speak English, French and Mandarin Chinese. And I am stuck as an INDIGENT on permanent Disability in order to survive my chronic but fully treatable illness. This is utterly BLASPHEMOUS, don't you think?
