I come form a single parent household on welfare, and unfortunetly my mother also had a drug problem. I had to drop out of highschool before my 16 birthday due to heath reasons. Through strength and a lot of ambition I am now a junior in college majoring in wildlife biology and minoring in art with a 3.8 G.P.A. I was on Tennessee's form of government healthcare, Tenncare, until i turned 21, which is the cut off age, and I now have no form of health insurance. I have already racked up hospital bills, I can not afford my medicine or the surgeries I need to be pain-free enough to attend school and work. I am worried that I will not be able to stay in college and be able to become a productive member of society if I do not receive some type of inexpensive or free healthcare. I DERSERVE TO BE HEALTHY.
