    This is close for my mom and I, both of us suffering from many issues. (including skin cancer) and her not having health insurance for a decade before the Affordable Care Act was passed. Me having health care through government and it crippling basically any chance I had in getting a full time job.

    She got ACA as soon as it came out, and this was (despite it's flaws) the only insurance she had in a long time. I thankfully have it through my university now and no longer have to worry about my own insurance.

    Finding out that this would've destroyed any health care chances my mom had, it would've killed me. I'm glad it hasn't passed and at least for now been shoved to the back burner.
