The highlight of that was Debbie Smith, who allegedly suffers from recurrent cancer and can't afford care. She told a story and got a hug from Obama. This woman claims that she opted for radiation therapy over an operation for kidney cancer because of her obligation to care for an invalid parent. This was in the 1990's. This is pure B.S. Radiation therapy for renal cell CA is a palliative treatment ,only for inoperable renal cancer and would never be offered as an alternative therapy to nephrectomy for the reasons she states. (renal is Latin for kidney and nephros is Greek) The probability that she survived this long with palliative radiation for kidney cancer is very very low if not impossible. She has worked for the DNC at least since 12/23/08. She claims to have been in the U.S. Marine Corp for 4 years and why wouldn't she not qualify for VA benefits?? I smell something bad!
