Wow, I'll be praying for you that these bills won't wipe you out and that your health will continue to get better so you can get back on the big strings. Stay strong bro!

This can even be done with no interest. There are also laws about them reporting unpaid medical bills on your credit reports. I also understand that if a person doesn't have insurance you can negotiate the rates down as the insurance companies do with the hospitals.

Wally | In this case..I have insurance but last year spent a minimun of 6 months in the hospital ..my portion is still insane..I would hate to have had the entire bill without the insurance..... I am still thinking positive and know things will work out for the best..EVERYONE ,thanks for the kind words and support..I appreciate them!!! |
