I thought about marriage, but after checking in to it, found that I would need to add her to my insurance, that would have almost cancelled my small pension, and made me legaly responsible for her med. bills. Yes she has medicare, and a supplement,but this year alone, she has been hospitalized 7 times, has had over 20 units of blood, and so many CAT and MRI scans that she glows in the dark. And that was almost a normal year for her. It sort of gauls my daughter, our living together.And her family has got used to it. My son knows medical mishaps, and the cost, and he's in favor of our arrangement. So you guys who complain about rising health costs, we are a cause, didn't want it to happen, but it did. If they change the HCA no one will insure her, because of past medical history. So now she has three untreatable medical problems. [that should read uncureable]. So these "golden years" ain't what their cracked up to be.
