My best friend has a young daughter with a genetic disability that will dramatically affect her for her entire life. She had a stroke a few months ago that scared the whole family, thinking there would be more complications to her condition. Furthermore, my friend works part-time and her husband works full-time so that she can be there for her daughter and help her grow up.
Texas Medicaid kicked her off during this round of purges, and my friend has spent countless hours trying to get her daughter reinstated (one person from TXMED finally said it was a data-entry error that caused the loss in coverage).
Fuck Republicans and everyone who voted for them. Society is about caring for the most vulnerable, and they’ve broken the social contact.
