If it wasnt for my bff, i would be living in my car. How is $150 a month supposed to make a difference for anyone in this place with average rent at $2066 a month. $150. In SEATTLE

I was just fired from King County (WA) for being sick. "Non-disciplinary medical separation" they call it. I've been very sick with multiple doctors finding a variety of problems. Tumors, brain malformation, scarred lungs, and POTS. Ive had 14 anesthesia events in my life. 9 majors surgeries including one that saved my life and another that prevented kidney failure. I have lost my job so now i have a giant heap of problems that are debilitating with no insurance. The state insurance is effected by a change in income of $150 a month. In fuckin Seattle. The whole entire system is built for people who are not sick. I've become disabled. As one might expect it's taken a heavy toll on my mental health. The thing i did wrong was need medical attention after 9 years of public service.
