My daughter was diagnosed with Leukemia, spent 10 weeks in a top-notch hospital, got stellar around the clock attention from the best docs in the world for two years, and a limitless supply of chemotherapy and drugs to treat the side effects. Grand total for 24 months of the best care in the world? $8,000 in deductibles. I don't doubt that other healthcare systems are well run, but after my family's ordeal, I came away pretty impressed with our system. Treating cancer for less than the price of a well-worn car is pretty darn impressive.
