Deaths occur across our country every day due to illness and disease. There are some in this group who might have been able to survive if they had been insured with a health insurance plan and had earlier intervention and/or prevention treatments. The right to health insurance should not only be a province of the wealthy and/or employed, it should be made available to all citizens. Yet lately in our country it is only the rich that can afford it, those with job struggle to pay it, and those that are unemployed do not carry it.
There are many countries, such as in parts of Africa, where the citizens do not receive the proper care due to lack of health professionals, funding and medications. This has resulted in the death of many, when it could have otherwise been treated and death could have been prevented.
In the United States, however, we have begun to take out medical insurance for granted and stop making a conscious effort to care for ourselves, since we know that if we get ill there is a doctor and medication that can “fix us up”. Our eating patterns and fast pace lifestyles are gradually destroying our bodies.
There is a need for a new awareness, to become conscious of the decisions we make regarding our bodies, to preserve our lives instead of destroying them. Medical conditions such as diabetes, heart attack, stroke and other vascular diseases are most of the time a product of our lifestyles.
Essential to our survival is becoming conscious of our decisions about how we treat our bodies to stay healthy. Would that come to pass our medical expenses would decrease dramatically as medical care would be only for the occasional disease or illness.
