Completely agree, came here to say this.

I worship the lovely soup.

Medicaid has different income limits for different states. For a family of 3 in Michigan it's about 2755 per month. If you make less (per household) you qualify for Medicaid. Search "Medicaid Requirements" plus your state. Everything is covered. The 2400ish we bring home a month barely covers our bills, but it's worth it for Medicaid if you have a chronic health condition (or on our case my spouse, our child, and myself all have serious health conditions). My medication for my pituitary deficiency would cost me thousands a month. My spouse and child have a genetic vascular condition and they need scans every year to make sure they're not about to die.

Another thing you can do is a Medicaid spend down. I'm not sure how it is for every other state. But let's say your limit is 3000 for your family but your income is 4000 and your medical bills are 2000 a month. You pay the difference between your income and the limit (1000), and Medicaid covers the rest. I believe you have to have a serious health issue to qualify for a Medicaid spend down.

If you are low enough income to qualify for SSI, Medicaid is given automatically (I think in every state).

In our state of Michigan you apply for Medicaid at DHHS. They have a very easy to use website for a few years now (it was a big hassle before that). Let me know if you have more questions about this.

You sound like an attentive cat carer. Cat was lucky to have you. The point of all this is different for everyone, but cats are a big part of the point for me. Maybe for you, you can give more cats a good life as well. When you're ready of course, you may need time to grieve.

Not only that, but babies can't / shouldn't be using it all day everyday. So it really should be the cat's at least 90% of the time.

I read things like this (or try to) and I think, just let him be. The most powerful thing that can help someone is what they think works for them. There's no need to tear it down if it's not harmful to others.

If someone stumbles across something like this and is influenced by it, I think odds are extremely great that they were already of a similar mindset. If it preached violence or bigotry or anytime I'd see more of an issue.
