[IbogaProject]

57. Some times they try and get you to take one year of medicaid

In an attempt to get you to waive your claim to the retroactive months. That is a bad tradeoff.

I had to apply 3 x before I was accepted. I almost died while waiting. Then I had to wait a year to be covered by Medicare.

[badhair77]

This should make your life easier. Best news I heard today, and that’s passing my garage door opener getting fixed. That is my exit out of the house. I spent over a week trying to navigate the front steps with my cane. I thought I was joyous over the fix but your win surpasses it. Yay! Thanks for the update.

[Lochloosa]
