-- Sara Kissling owns The Sausage Foundry in Cedar Rapids with her husband. She has stage five kidney failure. The Affordable Care Act lets her get coverage with her pre-existing condition. It also helps her afford dialysis treatment and medical equipment.

She says, "Without it I would have met my cap within maybe six months. I'd be dead right now anyway, because who can afford $30,000 per month in expenses.

Keep it up, folks!
