The thing I am most attached / obsessed with to when it comes to the #NYHealthAct is DENTAL Care & MATERNAL CARE .
There are way too many of us putting off dental & eye care no matter how painful it may be because we dont have any other option.
We deserve to go to the hospital in peace
I literally dont know what else to say other than that healthcare is a human right and its needs to be implemented S.T.A.T
Not supporting it means people dying due to not being well versed with the system and or not being able to pay
I remember being around when we got #PassNYHealth to trend in NY , I literally never thought that would happen and that I would be seeing it.
Guess what though, I still had no access to care and booking a plane ticket was still cheaper & people were still rationing medicines
The #NYHealthAct must happen & needs to be implemented .
The Maternal care piece is also important because oo many people are opting for natural birth or in house birth which are way more risky & outdated because they cant access a C section.
Pre natal care is put off in so many cases if its not included in the insurance
Simply Nuts
I have been told if you don't like this , Go to Canada & I am like I can leave for sure but why should people die . Why must people be exploited ?
Life is precious and you can be confident that I wont keep quiet about people suffering.

My love , your mother gave you life after keeping you in her body FOR FREE lol for almost a year and losing kilos of blood
farmers stayed out in the sun rain or shine or PANDEMIC and grew your food that your family bought/ or may have been given as a gift or for free due to income they recieved from the community , the community built your school , your loved ones gave you emotional shelter.
Someone built the house you lived in, someone/something grew the flowers you smell, someone is driving the public vehicle you travel in
Even though everyone seems indifferent you are here because 4 the most part folks gave a shit about u
