Trapped
Trapped inside the
Health care maze.
Spinning, confused,
Stumbling, dazed.
Biopsy ordered-
Labwork sent,
Referals, Appointments,
Specialist went.
I feel hopeless,
Helpless, fazed,
Pinned down, trapped,
Angry! Crazed!
Out of network?
Not Covered? Copays?
Coinsurance? Deductibles?
Will my insurance pay?

This is something so many people can relate to, especially in this time. Wonderful!
I know and have heard of many people in this situation. It’s so sad on top of results coming back that add insult to injury. Great poem.
Thank you!
Prayers and worries…I feel it all through the poem. Thank you for sharing.
Very well written
Very touching poem! I want to cry.
I’ve never seen a poem on this topic but so very many of us flounder around in exactly the same dilemma. This poem makes me also think of a specimen under the microscope. Nice!
Thank you!
