May 2009

A health care crisis hit my family three weeks ago.  It wasn’t my 80-year-old father or 77-year-old mother.  My 49-year-old kid brother had a stroke.

Jon has had a tough time in recent years.  He was let go from a job in his journalism field after 18 years.  He started working as a cook in a restaurant, a job he loved despite the long days, hard work, and low pay.
