    Started watching the movie Ordinary Angels. It's about a man who lost his wife, drowning in hospital bills, and has a 5 year old, very ill daughter. As the heroine hairdresser raised money to help w hia debts, all I thought is how this tragedy is a typical American story now. #universalhealthcare.

    SO true in the US. Wrote about how the movie Ordinary Angels is a typical American story minus the heroine hairdresser. Also learned how many sick people use gofundme to try and raise money to pay for their own treatment. As if being ill isn't bad enough.
