I live in Australia and suffered an A.V. malformation in my brain that burst one day in 2021. I was flown to a major hospital in the city for emergency brain surgery. I woke up again 1 week later with a bunch of tubes coming out of me and no idea where I was or how I got there. After they took the tubes out of me a few weeks later I found out I had to learn to walk again. I was released for out-patient care 3 months later, the whole thing cost me exactly $0.

America really screwed over it's own people.
