Same for parents. The nursing home literally killed him. Literally. And agism is real. I turned 70 last week. And having been disabled since I was 24, im totally afraid of SSA getting D/C'd. But I won't be the only elderly person living on the street. And the doctors who mostly practice replacing joints on the elderly will also no longer be employed. Such shortsightedness. Without medicare and the ACA, I wonder if even Mayo would remain standing. Fear on top of all of it is unfair and also top down ageism and ableism. Sorry but at some point we need to be able to talk about this defining moment.

I am 64. Afraid like you we will lose social security medicare. I am on SSDI. Will be 65 in October. I switched to origional medicare on Jan.1 medicare advantage a nightmare. That is understating it. I filed so many complaints about them with medicare. They sabotaged themselves I prefer female providers too..
