Sorry only Kay responded, but she is correct. See if you can
get media coverage, doubtful, but try anyway. Contact all your
politicos. Exposing them is all you can do and hope for the

Many others have been through it and we must just be greatful
to be alive. Imagine all those who died of 'mysterious'
ailments or misdiagnoses and cannot post here or any where else.
Good luck to you.
If we could manage to band together, get a lobbyist, media
coverage, maybe then we could get some results, but Mary posted
something by US chamber of commerce that seems to show
insurance industry has gotten upperhand here. We have become
'collateral damage' or acceptable casualties in an economic war.
