The insurance company made a "gut-wrenching" decision? Those insurance companies make unbelievable amounts of profits.........they could save the lives of those boys tomorrow. Yet tomorrow may be too late. :( God bless those baby boys and their family.
Both the pharmaceutical company and insurance company are greedy AF. The pharmaceutical company that prices a life saving drug for millions of dollars AND the insurance companies who cut coverage for those in need. Greedy greedy people
Power corrupts & absolute power corrupts absolutely! The more money companies have, the more powerful they feel they can become until they think they’re untouchable. They soon fail to take notice of anyone else, especially if they’re in need. Greed becomes the green eyed monster that eats them alive. In the end, they’re not happy.
If a doctor prescribes a medicine, then the insurance company should have to pay for it. Insurance companies should not hold peoples lives in their hands. They have been given too much power! They get their money every month! Either take that power away from them or implement National Healthcare so that its not a question of whether someone has to come up with millions of dollars to save a loved one.
Well if it’s ultra rare, then you are not paying for many kids with these insurance companies. So much for trying to be pro life when companies won’t even support life out of the womb.
The insurance company should pay out and save these kids what if it was your kids? please do the right thing you know it wrong not paying out its sickens me that children having to die for a medicine that could save lives to all children
My Twin and I have problems with our immune system. It was found with genetic testing. But, having your best friend born with you so that you can be together is amazing. Please help these boys!
Prayers for your boy's and insurance is being taken from people that are really very sick and given to other's that don't qualify but keep fighting to get what you're babies need God bless your family Amen. ❤❤
It should be a crime to deny such treatments to begin with, let alone their health insurance company should be sued. The drug was covered at the time of their birth!
How the hell can an insurance company cancel their policy! Tell me WHY one medication costs 2mil for one IV bag. My daughter had leukemia……even with blue cross blue shield insurance we owe a quarter of a million over the span of 5yr In Just copays and gene therapy we tried when she relapsed. The drugs that show the most Primise carry the biggest price tag because big pharma won’t make money if ur cured. MAKES ME SICK. I hate insurance companies and I hate big pharma for making peoples misery into profit.
If they are denied the drug and live even a year with the quality of life they are describing rhey qill for sure exceed 4.2 million in cost with hospitalizations. What happened to do no harm?
Years and years probably decades of research and development. You do know it takes many people and a lot of equipment to come up with these drugs for treatment. Plus not everyone reacts the same to them. There is no such thing as a guaranteed cure
@@eileenmcdonald1599 that I understand. But! That was research. They get funds for research. Once a drug is developed, the cost comes down. It is not up to the user to pay for research.

My cousin recently died of breast cancer because our government medical system is not interested to assist. They wouldn't even do a mastectomy.
Oh hell no! Sorry for the language but this is horrible! The way things are done in our healthcare system right now should be illegal! You mean to tell me they can be cured, can live a normal life but only thing that’s halting that is the cost of treatment!? It should be ILLEGAL to deny someone life saving treatment. I pray to God they are able to get this treatment.
I think it’s sickening that if a cure is available, that it is offered at such a ridiculous price tag 💔 A life is a life, every life is a blessing & anything to avoid long term suffering, not to mention avoid adding more medical fees should be readily available 🥺 Prayers for both these boys & their parents & family 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 The amount of heartache & stress they’re facing,,, can only imagine
Absolutely outrageous. No reason for this. It’s apparent that the insurance company knew about their testing positive for that condition and canceled them!
There's something INCREDIBLY WRONG with a health care system that makes so much money and PROFIT off of illness and disease.

Many live a very long time with SMA. It is not an automatic death sentence. There are many degrees of the disease. It is considered a form of muscular dystrophy.
