Many thanks.

I’m sure there is something wrong with my prostate, but without insurance I won’t know for sure until it’s too late.

So sorry for that. It’s a sorry place when we have money to spend and send weapons to destroy and kill but not on our own people’s health…I hope you find a way to get care.

Are you American? Try getting over to Canada/Europe somehow.

It’s probably how you prioritize to spend your money. Probably you prioritize your iPhone, your car, your home, etc. higher than yiur healthcare. People spend hundreds of thousands dollars throughout their lives, but when it comes to their health, they don’t want to spend money, and they expect the government (I.e., taxpayers) to cover their healthcare.
