Any advise on where I should go or where to look?

Thank You!

Many plans to choose from and depending upon your reportable income you may qualify for a subsidy.

Good Luck !

Hi CountryGirl63,

RickeyD's suggestion here could be your best bet. You might want to start there (hurry).

And certainly, check all the ideas from others who have offered help here for finding coverage. (But please make sure to check RickeyD's link, right away, if you have not already done so.). SHINE might be able to offer some direction, too. I don't know anything about SHINE but if villagetinker says it is good, it must be. (That guy is always helpful and gives good advice.)

It sounds like you have faced great difficulty. You might find a support group in TV for those who have experienced a stroke. I don't know for sure but you might want to check on that, too, as you get settled into TV life. (just a thought)

Kind wishes to you as you go forward.
