I have been treated for cancer this year and my current insurance expires as of December of 2008. At that time, if I live in the state of Ohio I have no availability for "somewhat reasonable" health insurance coverage. However, if I move to Indiana or Kentucky (both just 15 minutes from my current residence) I would be eligible for their state funded high risk health insurance program.

Is that what I have to do, leave my home state because the legislature is too busy trying to decide if being within 6 feet of a stripper is more important to the people of the state of Ohio than being able to afford decent health care in our later years - especially after heart attacks and cancer? You let me know!
