Lamig you are right. There's nothing wrong with what you said. The man can stay strong but through his weakened times, his wife needs to stay just as strong or more. And yes if roles reversed. I went through a tough period for only a year and my wife left me telling me that I wasn't worth being with because I should be more worried about her and her children more than the pain I was going through. Little does she know.... I was but she took every moment she could to tell me how bad I was or how wrong I was. Now and for the last decade I am worthless. Through sickness and in health is an oath and that woman stayed true. My wife at the time used my sickness against me and my money to pay her school Dept and then leave with my heart and soul. Now I have no soul. It's all gone

@animuslite88093 жыл бұрын
@@teniabryz5879 there is some socialized healthcare in the US, but most pay for it. There are various insurance companies with differnt plans at differing costs. So you ultimately do have options as far what you need and how much you want to pay, but ultimately your insurance will only cover the expense partially so the remainder is left for you to pay. If you dont have insurance you wont be denied emergency services and you wont be arrested if you cant pay it and more than likely the hospital wont attempt to pursue you legally for it unless it's an excessive amount. People solely blame the government solely for the issues that arise from the system, but really it's just the healthcare industry. They call all the shots, they get to charge whatever amount they want and because of how our economic system works (generally) they aren't regulated as much as they should be. On a better note, this has really propelled our health care system in terms of how good it is on a fundamental and technological level. All the money that has been pumped in it over the years has really propelled the advancement of medicine, so much so that foreign leaders from countries with socialized healthcare come here to be treated. This comes at the cost of the average person though. It's like our military. It turns out if you throw the equivalent of other countries GDPs at something, you'll probably have the best version of it.

My hubby died 2 years ago and our world fell apart... I was diagnosed with severe COPD and didn't know if I could manage and cope with our now 17 year old DS daughter. Since stumbling on Secret Santa I have been bewildered by the hard times and struggles facing these families and how uncomplaining and courageous they all are. In comparison I realise how blessed my life is and that we could've been dealt worse...Thanks SS for reminding me to be grateful for all that we have 🙏 and how blessed we are every day.

Oh Brad, never break your wife's heart by saying that sort of stuff again - death to collect life insurance. Never please. I have watched programs sometimes where a parent dies unexpectedly or via some sort of sickness and a child is scarred deeply. Over 20 years later you see the grown kids still weeping as they recall memories of their lost parent. Man, I tell you, no money can ever replace a father's love. No amount of money will place your little son on the knee as you did in that picture at the end. No amount of money will replace your smile, the sound of your voice or your presence in your home. No amount of money will hold your wife tight at night. You were saved for a reason, live it out bro. Love to your entire family, secret santa and all who made this possible...

They had no need to make it into a recurring show. They could have been anonymous as well. Perhaps the secret santa is in fact the sponsors for the news outlet. More viewers. More money. The family I sincerely sympathize with. Not the exploitation for cheep cheers and cheep tears. And of course it is about politics. If Idaho didn’t have the lawmakers they have, perhaps families like these would be cared for. But alas, some of the very same people who sit at home revelling in these shows, are also part of the mass of people denying help for other families in need.

You must have private healthcare... In Canada, we have free health care. I had a compound fracture from whistler bike park so i went to the local care center and waited about 4 hours even though I had a bone sticking out of my arm. My mom finally told them to take me to a private hospital (expensive and run by rich bastards, but no wait time and high-quality care from doctors that are paid a decent amount) and they amputated my arm after I got an infection either from the waiting room or from the lack of knowledge in the city EMS. Free "universal" healthcare never works and results in underpaid doctors, insanely long wait times and billionares who own private hospitals and care centers that only the wealthy can afford. Not to mention you need to be a citizen and pay your taxes to get care from the "free doctors" (AKA the homless dont get healthcare bc they dont pay taxes, and international visitors have to pay for private health care). In conclusion don't listen to the lefts brainwashing ideas, they all fail and destroy peoples rights, and end up sending 95% in extreme poverty and 5% in extreme wealth (like socialist venezuela) @Hoodie Papa -cheers man @December - learn some hsitory plz

In Brad's thinking HE is at fault, and wishes sometimes he could have died so you could worry less and have more, he is only thinking of YOU guys (his family). It is an amazing thought that he would be willing to die to help make his family happy. And, fortunately, he has YOU (his family) to help remind him that his life is much more important than the material happiness his death would provide. I just mean, a man who cares that much obviously is wanted alive and with you rather than having the finances more secured. I love men like Brad. I am so impressed with him and all he has been through. I see him as a very rich man, in the deepest meaning of rich, of the heart, where all our riches should be. Everything else is gravy!

@ShariSez1 oh for sure, my dad was really blessed to have the job he had with the army corps of engineers, through it all he continued to drive an hour to Baltimore, sometimes another hour to the Pentagon, and then an hour or two home, every day until he retired, for months he went undiagnosed with a broken femur, still went to work, up at 5, home around 5, and I know he wasn't doing it for himself, it was all for us, that's why I know for fact this man has a cape under that shirt, because my dad does too.

Before we moved, my wife and I used to buy presents for kids up the road who had a mother, to be kind, spent her money on things other than her kids. We also had an old artificial tree that we used to set up for them. It made them so happy. And that was the best Christmas present of them all.

Gerald Kneeland Thank you, but that’s not necessary. It really was our pleasure. Especially watching them open the gifts and eat the Christmas cookies. I wish we would have kept in touch. I’m so curious as to what became of them.

Brad, I hope you read this personally. Thank you for staying so strong. Its men like you that show us boys what being a man looks like. You're going through so much but you arent giving up. "Taking it one day at a time" means a lot more coming from someone like you. Thank you for putting me in my place and my problems in perspective. I'm glad y'all got this gift. Thank you for being strong. You're an inspiration, man.

Out of all the secret Santa's I've watched, this has hit me the hardest. I can't stop crying. To hear people complain over trival things and then hear this, it puts life in prospective. Bless this family and may God keep this awesome man alive for his loving family.
