@NetsLead NBA should put us out of our misery and relocate them to Seattle or something so we can be free of this poverty franchise and find a new team
James Van Der Beek just passed from colorectal cancer, which has the second highest treatment cost of any cancer. Last year he auctioned off memorabilia from his tv and film career in order to pay for the staggering costs of his treatment
His family is now left to deal with the burden of his passing, both emotionally and financially.
US health care is THE most expensive globally and medical debt is still the number one reason for personal bankruptcy in this country. Millions of Americans (which include successful 90s television actors) are struggling every day under this for profit system that is designed to continuously reap enormous profits for the multi billion dollar companies within it. James’ family should not have to worry about staying financially afloat as they mourn his loss, just as no family or individual should face the reality of being one medical emergency away from losing everything.
