Not the case in Mexico. It's commonly known amongst expats that every major city has at least one good hospital. If you get injured or seriously ill make sure that they know to take you to that hospital. Literally life or death.

They were wrong. You would have no problem getting the surgery------the problem would be whether your insurance covers it or not and how much your resulting out of pocket would be.
May I recommend that you schedule a "Twitter-ectomy"?
after you get your lobotomy
yea they said i could only get it if i had alot of money. they mentioned how much they pay per month for insurance.

$930M of $2B raised on GoFundMe was for health expenses. This is "healthcare" in late capitalism

so the healthcare for animals in canada is privatized. my brother didnt have insurance and he paid $6000 last year, and now if we actually bought the insurance it would have cost way too much or they wouldnt try fixing the dog anyways.
a healthcare for house pets or even all animals system would create alot of jobs because you would be increasing the amount of work. it might even justify the currently unjustifiable 40 hour work week.
if i fail in canada im gonna try america but im not holding my breath considering you cant even provide healthcare for all humans.

Are you saying your brother paid $6,000 to treat his dog for cancer?

People are insane about their pets.
My dogs are family and I love them, but I mean come on, they're animals not people. 6k could have helped a lot of strays.

I agree 100%. I could never justify in my mind paying that much to save an animal, and I love my dog to death.

I think people hold on to pets because THEY can't bear to let them go. IMO, the humane thing a lot of times is to let them go, rather than prolong their lives.

I think it depends on what is wrong with the animal. If it's something easily fixed, yes. If it's something the animal will suffer with for a long time, no.

Mine have been made comfortable as long as possible and put down when that was no longer an option. Some of the saddest days of my life.... but sometimes truly caring means finding the strength to let them go.
thats a good point.
now lets say we replace the word pet with people. does the same apply?
