best of luck is right..
If you're lucky you'll never need medical assistance while having no insurance I guess.
wow - 13 grand in debt for a broken wrist as a young kid is pretty heavy stuff to get past.
I think I've had a total of 5 casts in my family and all that involves - ER visits, xrays/scans/followups etc....all I paid was about 175.00 in total for upgrades to fibreglass casts.
The hospital stays, and diagnostics, meds and specialists bills for various things over the last decade would have me living on the street by now I guess or in debt so deep that my grandkids would be still be paying.
That's most definately not a laughing matter.
