Been there, done that. Tens of thousands in hospital/doctor bills, back in 1995. They offered me a 30-day-only deal; they'd settle for 1/3 of what I owed if paid in 30 days. I had to sell Bridgeport mill, South Bend engine lathe, Harley Sportster, British sports car, .44 AutoMag, lots of handguns, air compressor and many air tools, pretty much anything I could sell, I did. Had to take a loss on everything, but worth it to keep my house. There was a 70% chance I wouldn't make it past five years and I really wanted to die at home and not in some hospital.

Still do, twenty-seven years later.

Have faith, Eric. It can be beat.
