I understand about the insurance thing, I too have pre-existing conditions that if for any reason I lost my job or insurance, I would never be covered by another insurance company, period. Trust me I tried. My last job didn't have group health insurance and I was on cobra, but that was getting ready to end. I applied with serveral insurance companies and was willing to even let them exclude the pre-existing conditions and just live with it as long as possible, but they turned me flat down, so I had to leave my last job (which I enjoyed a lot) to get a job at a place with group health insurance. I had a brain tumor that, though not cancer, they considered it as being in that category so they wouldn't cover me
