I wish Santorum's little girl the best.
But I do also hope that, regardless of how they are paying for her care, that this reminds the Santorum family of how important medical care coverage is to a family. If they are able to pay their bills through some combination of insurance and out-of-pocket expenses that is great, but I wonder if they pause for even one minute to think of the many families in this country whose children have to go without healthcare.
My thoughts are with their little girl. And my thoughts are also with all the other children out there who face illness - and whose family cannot afford appropriate treatment. They are all equally deserving of concern.
I agree.
Rick Santorum
> Estimated net worth: $880,000 – $1.9 million
> Major accomplishments: Senator from Pennsylvania, Fox News commentator
Rick Santorum was a member of the House of Representatives in the early 1990s. He then became a senator from Pennsylvania until 2007. Santorum was a regular contributor to Fox News, a columnist, a consultant to an energy company, and a member of a conservative think-tank in D.C. According to Politico, the former senator’s public financial disclosure lists Santorum’s net worth as being between $880,000 and $1.9 million. According to Pittsburgh-based site Early Returns, most of Santorum’s assets “are tied up in rental properties he owns around the Penn State campus and college savings plans for five of his children.”

Trisomy 18 is an expensive disorder. It could have wiped out their finances with ease. I would hope he would remember all those who had no insurance. I dont bank on it.
