Unfortunately some people can't muster up understanding or empathy and then the wherewithall to DO SOMETHING about it until they are in the circumstances. I didn't know shit from shinola about being "poor(ish)" until life threw my family several curveballs, direct head hits at that. But I'd like to think I'd have empathy regardless. Families are drowning in healthcare decisions. Insurance is too expensive, co-pays and exclusions increase every year, deductibles get so high it's not feasable to see a doc because of the deductible, you lose your job and you can't get private or afford COBRA. The issues are monstrous. Older people can't afford their healthcare - it's frightening.

Uh. Isn't this a thought pulled from Sarah Palin's "I can see Russia from Alaska therefore know foreign relations" school of expertise?

Drescher didn't just get the flu or something - the woman had cancer, which requires long term extensive treatments, and expensive harsh ones at that. I don't think we are saying she knows every intricacy of the healthcare system top to bottom, but having an in-depth patient perspective would be an excellent qualification should she decide to tackle healthcare reform if she were elected.
