So, today I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Matti Vann. She is an mother of a hemophiliac and is doing an amazing job to raise awareness about Hemophilia! You can read and hear all about her and what she is working on at her website at ManyMiniMods.com.
We discussed so many things and I feel like I could write 20 blog posts about our conversation but one thing that certainly stood out for me today was our heath care here in Canada.
Today is of course Remembrance Day here in Canada and I did find myself bragging about our medical system a little bit. I know that our system isn't person and I will admit that I know very little about the Medical system in the US but I will say that knowing I can get the medical care I need without worry of how I will pay for it is a blessing.
I have many Hemophiliac friends in the US and it seems to me that if you have insurance you are good to go but if you are a Hemophiliac without insurance is can be very difficult.
I hate the thought of Hemophiliacs suffering especially when they are suffering just because they don't have money.
I have heard horror stories from Hemophiliacs all over the world and I have my own,No health care systems are perfect but hopefully we will one day live in a world where all Hemophiliacs have access to care.
I must say talking to Matti really fired me up and got me excited about volunteering and all that good stuff.
I was feeling a bit burnt out there for a while but I'm starting to think I'm ready to get back into soon.
I look forward to sharing the finished product of the pod cast with y'all soon.
