GOP minority leader Boehner's constituent dies without health insurance
The story of the girl's death was posted here before, but someone at Buzzflash put two and two together and figured out whose district she lived in.

Someone needs to ask that bottle-tanned nitwit about this and hold his feet to the fire.




On Tuesday, Sept. 22, Young’s condition suddenly worsened and her roommate drove her to McCullough Hyde Memorial Hospital in Oxford, where she was flown in critical condition to University Hospital in Cincinnati.

“That’s the most tragic part about it. If she had insurance, she would have gone to the doctor,” Mowery said.



Young, who studied French, Spanish and earned two degrees at Miami — international studies and fine arts photography, was an active member of the Students for Peace and Justice and the Association of Latin American Students.

The Wayne, Ohio, native was still in Oxford after graduating in 2008 because she wasn’t able to find the right job. Hey said this past summer, Young was debating pursuing a graduate degree or working for a nonprofit organization.

3. Bless her heart. RIP, you should have had so much ahead of you.
Ditto on the previous comment on Boehner. Her death is his responsibility. He is actively preventing people from getting the medical care that they need...and deserve.
