The hell I've been through this past year battling my current ACA policy to fund my Lynparza (I paid 8k in copays and another 7k in premiums and then they decided not to approve it anymore) and i finally get the next two months of my meds!! Which now may be my last.

My meds are working. My CA 125 is 11. I've fought so hard to be here right now to have it ripped from my hands like this because Trump is being a bully. Fuck that shit! People like me ARE worth fighting for!
