Sent to me from my mother... don't know how valid this is - I quickly checked Google to see if it came up as a hoax - but thought it might be of interest if it's true. The website looks legit. It's just hard to BELIEVE!
Legislation for all women.
Please send this to everyone in your address book. If there was ever a time when our voices and choices should be heard, this is one of those times. If you are receiving this it's because I think you will take the 30 ! seconds to go and vote on this issue...and send it on to others you know who will do the same.
There's a bill called the Breast Cancer Patient
Protection Act which will require insurance companies to cover a minimum 48-hour hospital stay for patients undergoing a mastectomy. It's about eliminating the "drive-through mastectomy" where women are forced to go home hours after surgery against the wishes of their doctor, still groggy from anesthesia and sometimes with drainage tubes still attached.
Lifetime Television has put this bill on their web
page with a petition drive to show your support. Last year over half the House signed on.
PLEASE!!!! Sign the petition by clicking on the website below. You need not give more than your name and zip code number.
