Video: Dawn Smith's story of her fight with CIGNA Insurance
This is how these private medcial insurance companies have been getting down to date yet you have these nut jobs invading Town Hall meetings claiming a Public Option is nazism, socialistic and a 'government takeover' of health care and polluting an honest discussion of health care reform and the viability of a Public Option:
More info:
"Four years ago, Dawn Smith was diagnosed with a rare, but treatable brain tumor. CIGNA denied her treatment for more than two years, but now that the spotlight's on them, they're changing their tune.
Unfortunately, they didn't offer any explanation for all the previous denials or a guarantee that they'll approve the next step in Dawn's treatment. Can you sign this statement of support to shine a light on Big Insurance's abusive tactics, get Dawn the care she needs and make sure they don't do this to anyone again?"

BTW: (so far) exactly three news sources are covering this story according to a Google news search I just ran. That is f-cking PATHETIC!!!
