CHRIST ON A CROSS. MY GOD, the intro to this story alone makes me want to spew FIRE.

If you live in Florida and your child (or you) has Medicaid 🚨 🚨 🚨 — because apparently the state didn’t even bother to notify some, or all, of the parents of the 460,000 children. Plenty of adults will lose coverage on EASTER SUNDAY, too.

Just one of the kids, age 10: “Her son Rylan was born with complex health issues intensified by a traumatic brain injury as a toddler. He is immune deficient and relies on a wheelchair, feeding tube, special formula, regular doctor visits and around-the-clock care. His medical costs are so expensive that even a day without coverage could cost Maron hundreds or thousands of dollars.“
