The Losing Keeps on Giving

Today I experienced a frisson of what I had lost when my old insurance company mistakenly sent me new cards. I lost my insurance when I lost my job. The insurance I had to pick up had a time limit (which has now ended) on physical therapy. This means I will never be able to get any better. While it's true that COBRA would have allowed me to continue the insurance, no way could I afford that on disability income alone.

I thought maybe the company had decided to let me continue my old insurance without paying extra. Wrong!! Just one more painful reminder of how over my old life is.
