I just wanted to stress the health insurance. DBF had a serious accident this past summer. The medical bills for a 5 day hospital stay were over $80k. We have hit $100k total and there will be more. He is otherwise young and healthy. There is another regular poster on here whose husband recently had to have brain surgery - again otherwise young and healthy. Medical bills will bankrupt you in a heartbeat. Thankfully, we have good insurance, so the out of pocket expenses have not been unreasonable. I can't tell you what a mess I would be if I had had to worry about the medical bills on top of the stress caused by the accident. The stuff the church run health clinic can take care of is not the stuff you need to worry about. Get health insurance ASAP.
