Our son Maximus turned one year old yesterday. I love that he’s a giant, healthy baby, and his first words are mama, dada, and duck. Here’s to another year of doing my best together with my husband. 💪

No, I don’t. Someone who doesn’t have a company paying for them puts in hundreds a month only to have health issues not covered at all or only slightly. I agree there can be a limit but it’s ridiculously unfair atm
So you expect an insurance company to pay for anything and everything regardless of how the injury was sustained and regardless of what the cost is? In short, you want free healthcare like socialist countries have? Where taxes are in excess of 50%, wait times are excessive, etc.
I know! I know someone who is very susceptible to staph infections - the antibiotic resistant kind. That’s why this terrifies me so much.
We’re only hearing about it because it’s Ben Askren. This happens every day to everyday people including children! Thankfully Ben has a large community of people that will likely rally to his side and support him financially.

Is he? I don’t actually know…. I just assume fighters are not rich unless they’ve been champ a few times because the money runs out.
Isn’t he rich tho ?
Agreed
Health and dental insurance in the USA is a complete joke. People work everyday pay their insurance and just covers a fraction of what the procedure cost. It has and always will be will be a fucking joke.
Honestly, my dad worked for a transportation insurance company, and got really upset when there was a train accident because his company had to pay. I wouldn’t think they’d pay for all of it. At least some. I don’t know any plan details.
Fair. Do you or anybody know why?
I see this getting passed around by MMA media. A journalist's job is to find out the why behind the reason the transplants won't be covered by health insurance.
@danawhite @jakepaul @GamebredFighter @DustinPoirier can we get a good fight foundation set up for @Benaskren
I don’t care if it’s Jewish, black, white, purple, or plaid. It still sucks the same amount and I still hope Ben gets his life saved. ❤️ that’s really what’s most important here.
No, I value the uniqueness of how we are all different cars. I don’t shame people because they aren’t lambos or porches. Even using your analogy I sound stupid as fuck. Do better and stop letting assumptions ruin your life. You are missing out on a lot.

I would also like to know. I don’t really know stuff, I’m just reading articles and ranting.
Which insurance is it? Let’s get that out to everyone
