CLAUDETTE B. MOORELike our neighboring state of Illinois, the state of Missouri should have accepted the ACA's insurance enrollment program for increased Medicaid funding that was included in the act's state ran enrollment centers. Refusing the additional funds was a trajedy and a travesty.

I have been receiving disability benefits due to depression and fibromyalgia for about one year. Today, we received a letter telling us that now we have to pay $2429.00 each month in spendown before my medicaid coverage will begin. My disability benefit is only $1122.00 per month. We have five children and are on the verge of losing our home. I am not sure how I am supposed to pay $2429.00 per month when my benefit is only $1122.00. It completely defeats the purpose of receiving the disability benefits in the first place. I physically and mentally cannot work and have spent the last year trying to better my pain management and my life. Just as we are getting there, we get this kick in the face. It is just cruel. I am now no longer going to be able to afford medication or doctor's visits and will in a matter of weeks return to being the disable, disfunctional, constantly in pain, hobbit in the basement who cannot afford medical treatment. I have now lost all hope. I hope that our government is happy that they have brought on the first thoughts of suicide I have ever had in my life, so that I am no longer a burden to my family at age 33.
