Family lost health care insurance, michigan resident, 1 1/2 yr old, congenital heart defect.?

along with all other medical needs the child requires a $2,000 monthly shot. who can we turn to for help?

Get in touch with your states health care. There is state supported health care offered in some states. I live in Illinois and we have social workers that get this for patients who come in to the hospital w/o any health care insurance. Good luck.

Research Easter Seals or March of Dimes.

MY sister who is now 31 had open heart surgery and my parents at the time did not have the funds and they contacted the March of Dimes for help. They have been around for years and they are soley for the purpose of children that need medical attention. We are IL residents. Good luck to you and God Bless that child!

My prayers are deeply with you and your family!

Go to the local welfare board in your town first.

You will not be denied for the MySimpleCard membership.
Watch the video, see if you get any ideas!
