Husband said he's dumping me! Questions about insurance.

Husband said last night he has had it with me and that this is it! Now that he know's that he's hep-c free. I've been having a hard time talking to him about the diease and when he found out I got on janis7hepc.com and chatted he was furious. If he leaves does his insurance have to cover me while being sick? Or will I be dropped, hope there is someone out there that has the same problem! Fresno calif.

He doesnt realize that I need the support of people who are going through what I am. That everyone here can answer questions that I dont have a clue about. I wont stop comming to this forum of stop chatting with hep-c people. Last night a very special person gave me her telephone number and I talked to her for hours. I was a blessing. She answered alot of my questions. And if it means getting a divorce or stop talking to people that can help ease my mind then so be it.

ask your hubby for a separation instead for a year first...to see if things can be worked out or counciling etc...then you will also still be covered by his insurance...perhaps what caused you two to get married in the first place is worth the year of working on it...???

if he cops out in the middle of the separation...drug companies also have arrangements they can do to help those who need to continue their treatments when finantial problems arise..

i pray all will work out for you...its so sad that he would be so nasty at this most important, sensitive time for you...do you think there is a chance he could come to his senses? i pray so...

The one great thing about guys (and gals) like this is that they are a perfect lesson in what to look out for in your next pairing, what you don't want in a person. There are tons of very self centered people out there, we don't need them in our orbit, let alone in our residences. They are like little signposts in a way, showing us the way out of unfulfilling relationships and into new good ones with ourselves and possibly with someone else really nice some day.

I had a relationship like this (if I wanted to be honest I'd say that I had more than one, he he he,) and once I was out of it, I counted all the little red flags he gave me early on, all those red little flags I chose to ignore cause he was so darn charming, intelligent and good looking! Sheesh! It might look bleak and feel awful right now, but I gaurantee you one day soon you'll feel so good about yourself in ridding yourself of this relationship - you'll feel like you've woken up from a long sleep...you'll feel great. Hold on to that! It'll be much better!

Oddly enough, I was on the live chat on Janis that night you were on, do you remember me? I hope youre doing better today, you have gotten some good advice here. Thankfully, California is a state where both parties get half the assets.

You are a blessing to me too! I teared up seeing that your husband sprang this on you. Call me again, anytime! I would think that his insurance would defentantly cover you until divorce but maybe beyond that for some time too but you may need to pay premeuims. But don't forget, there is free meds out there available.

Don't lose your strenght and your hope!

Love you lots,
Dana
