It's always a consideration, but the question is where would we move to (and how much am I willing to uproot my family)? Canada is a nice place with a better healthcare system, so maybe there? But that's expensive all on its own, and I have to consider that I have two autistic kiddos who are currently receiving their education at the best school in the state for special ed kiddos. Is it worth it? Maybe not. For now, I think we should stay where we are. I love it here, except for the high cost of my own care. Think I'd rather stick it out and fight for a better system here. Maybe we can improve things for everyone instead of jumping ship.

Yea, I can certainly understand the choice of staying and fighting for change
