Today I was contacted by: @AtlantaVAMC patent advocate
@AtlantaVAMC Ear Director
Newnan Clinic Medical Director
Reps from both GA Senators
Reps from 2 GA Congressmen
@IndyFund
And a few friends and strangers asking to help in response to my viral tweets
Why do you need medical treatment?
Have you ever had surgery?
Have you ever received blood?
What is the source of your pain?
All from a nurse reading from a computer in a accent so strong I had to ask her to repeat herself many times.
With my contacts and visibility I could’ve gotten red carpet treatment the day I moved to Georgia. But why should I get special attention? My Twitter didn’t earn my health care, my Fox hits didn’t pass legislation telling the VA to do its job
