If you want to understand why we need to reform our health insurance system, you need to know about Americans like Natoma Canfield. Natoma is a 50-year-old cancer survivor from Medina, Ohio, who wrote to President Obama last December.

Reading my newspaper today part of this article was in it, but also the statement that Ms. Canfield qualifed for Ohio's Medicaid, and wouldn't have had to worry about losing her house, car etc. As a cancer survivor I can only imagine what was going through Canfields mind on how to get treatment, the Administration seems to be using her as a poster women on health care reform but who actually would have had coverage if she applied for Medicaid when she first lost her regular insurance.
