No Insurance...its complicated

[MsMackieLee 0]

Alright so here's what I've been dealing with.

I cant afford insurance. So I applied through the state. DENIED! They say I make too much money, even though I make under their bracket. So I appealed...DENIED AGAIN! However they do say I qualify for Assistance if I'm on my Employers insurance. Which basically means they'll pay for anything my employers insurance wont cover. Which is cool I guess. Only problem is...I'm seriously torn here.

My employer is my family, and although I qualify [work more than 40 hrs per week, been working over 6 years], I'm not particularly sure we can handle the financial burden on the business. If it were any other employer I wouldn't care...but its my business too!

The reason I'm torn? 2 other members of my family are using insurance through the business, so why not me? It doesn't seem fair but then again, life isn't always fair. I'm literally the ONLY member of my immediate and extended family without insurance and its getting harder and harder by the day :thumbup:

I don't know whether to fight for my right for insurance, or just move on with my life. I have 9 more days to decide.
