I had to spend the weekend in the hospital. At somepoint I woke up and there was a lady asking me about my insurance. I didn't have any. She asked me what insurance would I like? I was pretty out of it, and just said "whichever one you would want to have".

Best thing that's happened to me. That nice lady looked out for me and got me really good insurance for free. No copays or anything. Every thing is free for me. Tests, medication, extra things, cabs, eye dental everything. I have yet to find anything it doesn't cover. And im at various dr appointments every week.

I was really lucky she was there for me.

I'm glad to hear that. It makes me think of a few times when I have been helped by someone who is a small cog in the machine showing me some compassion

Nurses for the most part have always been very nice in my experience. I don't know if that lady was a nurse or what, but it fits with all the other nurses in my area.
