Since my diagnosis, people come up to me at airports, grocery stores, and restaurants to tell me that they too are cancer survivors.

It is never a good time to have cancer, but what I am experiencing is the care and concern expressed by total strangers. This is compassion.

What we do as leaders affecting everyone’s lives should reflect compassion. There is no compassion in #GrahamCassidy

After all the care and compassion I received from my colleagues, #GrahamCassidy reflects none of this for millions across the country.

Health care is a right, not a privilege, but #GrahamCassidy treats health care like a commodity that can be bought and sold.
