Linda and Larry Drain have been married for 33 years but are now forced to separate because of the pitfalls of Obamacare and their state Medicaid program .
Stuck in a health care coverage gap, their combined income is too little to qualify for Obamacare subsidies yet exceeds the limit on unearned income to qualify for TennCare after Larry opted for early retirement.
Linda has epilepsy and must take expensive medication so she can’t do without insurance. Larry is without insurance but he has a hernia and is living on hope that he suffers no complications as he can’t afford surgery.
They have been appealing to Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam in numerous letters to expand TennCare.

“Tennessee didn’t expand Medicaid. Blame it on the state, not the ACA.”

“I voted for him, but reluctantly. Twice. But then, I’m left of Obama, so I had few choices. First time I’ve been on this site. Everything here looks like a steaming pile of horse c**p. Made up stories to frighten the ignorant.”

my parents have to get divorced after 40 years to keep his medicare
ANYONE ELSE KNOW THAT OBUMMERCARE IS KILLING AMERICANS
Very sad!
Omg :'(
This is sufficient reason to repeal this onerous law on its entirety. There should never be a stipulation that forces a couple to divorce for any reason under the sun. Whoever devised this law ought to be strung up by the short hairs until dead.
Well now Obama has found another way to destroy Americans and their lives. Go back to Kenya where you belong and take the fat ass with you, trust me we will not mourn the loss.
I call bull…… No one has to get divorced over healthcare .
