We can keep on insurance by paying the premiums out of pocket. The way it looks now, he will be fired Aug 1 and we lose it all. We both have pre existing conditions and without daily meds couldn't work a week of we could get jobs. We lose the insurance and the fat lady will be singing our obituaries.
