$80,000+ for a 2 night stay in the hospital and a routine surgery - madness! Good luck with the job hunting and the search for some sanity in health cover.
It's all set up with the assumption that there will be a health insurance company available to pay, and if you're on your own... well. It's quite broken, as are most things nowadays, it seems! :P
For all that it feels like the entire world is going to hell in a handbasket, I know that it isn't, and this is just an unpleasant pinch-point that I'll get through eventually, as I have before. But it does help (I think) to write it all down and sort of send it off as an open letter of protest to the universe at large. Organizes my thinking on the topic, if nothing else. I'll try to do a counterpoint post later tonight or tomorrow about the good things in my life right now, because they certainly do exist.
