I hope I don’t sound crass but … why have three double-lung transplants been allocated to this young woman - apparently all in the space of one year? Her prospects don’t seem all that great, and there must be other transplant candidates waiting for lungs. I don’t begrudge her this treatment; it just seems odd.

Good lord! $2000 won’t get him very far in solving all those problems, but he’ll be lucky to get $200. It’s awfully damn tough out there.

From a story by New Hampshire Public Radio (NH being one of the states where these grifters operated): ”Health care sharing ministries do not have to follow regulations that apply to traditional insurers, including the consumer protections included in the Affordable Care Act. Monthly premium fees are often less than traditional health insurance, though members aren’t guaranteed coverage for any health care procedure.” I truly hate these jerks who take advantage of dumb and trusting people who think that something labeled “Christian” will automatically be honest, fair, and caring. (Yeah, yeah, I’m sure a lot of their customers are more stupid or greedy than dumb and trusting, but some of them were really deceived.)
