After my wife and I both lost our jobs because of the recession, we decided to move back up near my parents in Michigan.  We knew that we were going to have to find some cheap health insurance quickly, because my wife has been having a lot of health problems lately, and she constantly needs medication.   Fortunately, there are several companies nearby where we will be moving in Michigan, so we think it should not be too hard to find something that is reasonable.  We’ve learned that you just have to do what you have to do.  Hopefully, the recession won’t last long.
