'Even though the president has repeatedly promised to protect health care, families like mine are living in limbo and unclear what the future holds for their children.'
Claire requires multiple medications a day to keep her healthy, including nebulizer treatments to help her breathe.
But, as my husband and I quickly learned, things don’t always go according to plan. After a blissful day cuddling our newborn and staring into the big, blue eyes she shares with her father, the doctors caring for her started to raise concerns. She had a heart murmur, her head was too big, her eyes too wide-set, and she was lethargic, even for a newborn.
Luckily, Claire had one of the best insurance plans in the country. So, it came as a huge shock when I learned that this wasn’t enough to ensure she had access to the care she needed ― or to protect the stable, middle-class life we had made for ourselves and envisioned sharing with our child.While Claire was still in the NICU, with bills mounting everyday, I learned that her health insurance had an annual limit on costs and a total lifetime cap on care.
