The health insurance is possibly more valuable than the condo is.

I'm fortunate as my insurance covered my late husband in his passing years.

I always took Union jobs w/benefits. I never earned a whole lot but I always had reliable health care.

I hope it doesn't come to you having to make such a choice.

Do all you can to prepare just in case.

I was left w/nothing personally.

I live in poverty now but I have the health benefits luckily.

Hang-in there and hope for the best!
