Betty - you can argue with mrp until the cows come home hon - it will never make a difference. He is very big on theory, but reality often differs from theory as we all know! Medical insurance in the USA stinks - unless you are mega-rich and can afford it. Having just gone through breast cancer trea...

Ok, having just gone through breast cancer, I can tell you that the costs given in the Guardian report are pretty accurate - actually they are a bit on the low side. I am fortunate to have health insurance, and even more fortunate to have European health insurance specially for ex-pats, which has co...

Well, living in a country that has virtually ONLY private health insurance, I can tell you all for certain, that YOU DON'T want to go that route! I for one, am glad, that in my present circumstances, I have a European health insurance plan (private of course), which covers 100% of my medical costs. ...

Wonderfully uplifting, Brian. Since being diagnosed with breast cancer, I truly appreciate the little things in life now. I did cry at no. 20 though, because my hair started falling out big time after my 2nd chemo on Monday. Not to worry though, I got some of my angels together and we had a head sha...

Thank you all for your good wishes. I am a tough old bird (I am a Sanddancer after all) and I don't give in easily. Actually, in a way, I am thankful that I live here and not still in England or Germany. Here, they do routine yearly mammograms from age 40 on. In England and Germany, they don't start...

Well, I'm afraid I am not going to be able to attend the board meeting after all. Unfortunately, I have had to cancel my trip home, because I have just been diagnosed with breast cancer :( So, instead of coming home to Shields, I will be undergoing surgery, followed by radiation and possibly chemoth...

I've used both AVG and Avast in the past and was happy with them on the whole. However, when we wanted to install one or the other of them on my new computer, we found that the free versions were no longer available! I don't know whether this applies just to the USA. Anyway, I now have Avira Antivir...

Don't worry Lisa, you'll get used to it after a while if you are planning on flying back and forth to the USA. Not exactly pleasant to spend 9 hours in a plane all cramped up (wish I could afford to fly first class), but like most everything else, it becomes routine after you've done it a few times.
