    Ooh we should also add in the cost of monthly lifesaving medications.

      My leukemia medication (sprycel) is listed at $16,794 per month. I’m over 40, and I’ve barely made over $20k a year for only a few years in my life. Per month it costs more than half as much as what I have been making per year my whole adult working life.

      Guess I’ll just die then.
