I really appreciate this "correction." I am 72 years old and have been living with a once life-threatening condition, thankfully now chronic. I was slammed by a rare autoimmune disease at age 28 in my last year of nursing school. Was very sick for many years, so have been grateful to have the safety nets of HUD, SNAP, Medicare and Medicaid (which I pay an overage of $85 month when I need medical care). So, the "we'll be ok" message hit me kind of hard too, but I know that everyone means well, so just tried to read it that way. It means a lot that you would come back and acknowledge that for some of us, this upcoming vote could change our lives dramatically, so it very scary right now. I very much appreciate all of the work that you are doing.
