1. Medicaid recently took services away

from my 94 year old bedridden aunt due to the recent cuts. They said she could make do with 8 hours a day rather than round the clock care. They made the decision the day we put her on hospice with a change-in-service date for 2 weeks later. "Luckily" she died before the deadline.

These people are disgusting and need to stop attacking the programs we have paid for.
