Rep. Tom Rooney, please reconsider your last opportunity to support reform in the upcoming final House vote.
I have a friend who has unbearable back pain and has been given powerful narcotics but no other treatment for it because she is not old enough for Medicare, is unsure of what her work record is and so is not eligible for SSDI (disability,) was helped to get on Medicaid but since it is share of cost she can neither see a doctor in his office nor be admitted to a hospital for any effective length of time.
She has a hole in her esophagus and has been told to just "watch it." She can hardly swallow anything and has somehow not qualified for tests for this situation. The only way she can be seen in a medical setting is in the ER where they have to treat her but they count the minutes before they send he back out to bear her pain alone.
Rep. Rooney I believe you can help my friend! Please resist pressure from the insurance industry lobbyists and stand up for her. No one could deserve your help more.
