18. I have cancer and am on my second set of chemo drugs, have been operated on, and eat pills like M&Ms

I am in the hospital once every 3 weeks for three days each session, I was operated on at the Cleveland Clinic about a year ago to remove a major tumor, I have a daily diet of pills that would choke a pigeon, and in the last two years I've spent a total of $30 for the medical care and another $100 out of pocket for the drugs. My total bills have come to about a half a million dollars so far but of course that is no indication of how much my insurances are actually paying.
