Danielle Sampson, Why the Affordable Care Act Matters

While a branch of the local hospital in this story provided excellent care for me on my United Health Care Medicare Advantage Plan, even the most altruistic health care provider must draw a line between taking care of people with acute conditions and those like myself who have chronic medical issues.

Use of the term "chronic medical issues" obscures the sad fact that in the most prosperous nation on earth a young lady caught in a crossfire resulting in a coma can easily exhaust insurance benefits in a few weeks, and families face ruinous medical expenses uncovered by any of those socialist government handouts to the 47% who, in Willard's World, refuse to take care of themselves, damn leeches on society.

[ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. —

The family of 15-year-old Danielle Sampson, who was shot in the head, will soon care for her at home once she is released from the hospital.

The Orange County teenager was caught in the crossfire of a shooting in July and has been in a coma ever since....


Arnold Palmer Children's Hospital said it can't talk about specifics of the case because of privacy laws but it released a statement, saying they do their best to work with families through these tough transitions....

The family said it has a long, hard road ahead, as family members soon will be forced to care for their daughter at their small home. 


Right now, the family is trying to figure out how they're going to pay for the special care Danielle needs....

On Tuesday, Danielle's family opened its home to WFTV, showing reasons why bringing their daughter home will be a challenge. Their air conditioner is broken, and her wheelchair and hospital bed won't fit through the doorways.

Danielle's parents said insurance money has run out, and they've both stopped working to stay by their daughter's side.

Danielle will soon be transferred to a rehabilitation facility where her mother will undergo a two-week training session on how to care for her. The plan after that is for the family to return home, which has community leaders scrambling.]

What does wondrous Willard say about health care in America? Go to the Emergency Room; you'll get care there.
