    I’m from the UK so I’m very lucky to have the NHS. I can’t fathom having to worry about medical bills whilst having cancer. The NHS has saved myself and 3 other family members lives without us worrying about how we can ever repay the monetary debt.
    RIP Clare ❤ Childhood cancer has come along way since this video however, some childhood cancers (DIPG & other brain cancers) still have poor survival outcomes and research on them is very underfunded.

    This note is for Clare's mother...i have a son that had aplastic anemia....he had a bone marrow and is now cured, but we went through 3 years of ups and downs..and i can tell you this even if your child is cured..watching you child go through everything stays with you for ever and it is horrible.....

    So she gets treatments that cause nausea and vomiting, and they scold her because she can't eat? Incredible.

      We grow old get sick and die because of a bad decision on the part of our first parents…had they remained obedient they and all their offspring would be alive to live on a paradise earth..happily God has planned to soon reverse the effects of Adamic sin where Claire will be able to enjoy perfect health forever in a paradise earth

      And if they are renting? Or can't remortage because they already done that?
      The US health system is disgusting, we all know that people on Medicaid / Medicare recieve second hand quality care. I thank God that I live in Europe.

      Healthcare in the USA is not free, and you have to pay out pocket. If they mortgage their home where will they go? They need somewhere to staff close to the hospital.

    I can't understand how they got to stay at the Ronald McDonald house her parents had good paying jobs. I thought it was more for lower income. Can't understand that.

      No it's for families who have to travel far from home for their child's cancer treatment, so that the family can stay together.

    • @bobs1356
      @bobs1356 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@xxthatsnotmexx I don't know about that. They have good cancer hospitals in almost all the states. It probably they don't have insurance so they pay to put the family up and the bill for free.

    • @xxthatsnotmexx
      @xxthatsnotmexx ปีที่แล้ว +9

      @Bob S yeah but that doesn't mean they have the treatment for a specific cancer. There are thousands of variations of cancer. Not to mention just because it's in the state doesn't mean it's in the city they live in, especially back in the 1980s.

    • @xxthatsnotmexx

      @Bob S like it literally has nothing to do with insurance, go to the website and read it.
