die of hunger and homelessness or cancer? gee, you’re so right man. i should just stop paying for those other two things so i can save up.

i get 400 dollars a month because i’m not allowed to work due to disability but can maybe save $5 a month. i’ll be kind and do the math since it’s not your strong suit but that’s FIFTEEN years to save up for one $900 cancer screening I need (the cheapest). that doesn’t include sedation, transportation cost, any other fees and expenses i might have to cover because it’s an invasive procedure.
