Illinois Senator Mark Kirk suffered a stroke on January 22, 2012. An event I would wish on no one. As my friend experienced the same tragedy prior to his death of pancreatic cancer. .
The only thing I would wish for is Senator Kirk to navigate the same private health care system as did my friend. Senator Kirk enjoys premium care through the Federal Program Office of Personnel Management, OPM. He is given the best health care the system can buy.
.
Contrast that with the rest of us trying to contend with the current private health care morass or have no health insurance at all. Senator Kirk has voted against health care reform in Obama care.
.
According to Emily in his D.C. campaign office Mr. Kirk feels that the Government should not dictate health care reform, but he has not communicated a clear alternative. Also please remember that OPM is health care through the Government. Thirty-two million more people will be covered as a result of Obama health care reform in 2014. If Senator Kirk's idea can cover more people then let us hear it.
.
May Senator Kirk realize a speedy recovery, if he does recover and may he also reconsider his position on universal health care. Senator Kirk should receive the best care money can buy just as should be available to the rest of us.
