Sixty-seven-year-old Evelyn Saguaro had the same problem her late mother had once been afflicted with. Besides her real gall bladder, she’d been born with a vestigial secondary one in which three cactus-like gallstones, each about the size of a quarter, had formed. Late in life, the vestigial gall bladder’s gallstones were starting to act up. Sharp pains would erupt beneath her breastbone immediately after she ate even a tiny serving of anything, and the acute pain made her sick to her stomach. When her doctor ordered tests to identify where the symptoms were originating from, he told Evelyn that her Medicare Plan only covered her original gall bladder, and since the stones had formed in the vestigial one, any procedure to remove them in “her unique case” would not be reimbursed. Her primary care physician kidded with her. “I suggest you refrain from eating,” he said. “Are you serious?” she asked. “No, a better idea might be to seek out a California Health Insurance agent.”

That’s when she realized that she had done just that, two years previously. Was her Medigaps supplemental still in force? She headed on a beeline to the Visalia office where she’d purchased the Medigap coverage. Was the office still there? It was. The same agent, Glenda, was at her familiar desk. During their previous conversation which she’d somehow forgotten, Glenda had shared with her that she too had a “vestigial gall bladder,” with its associated symptomology not yet evident. Glenda had even belonged to an online organization, a regular support group called VGB Sufferers International.”

“Glenda, I’m so glad to see you,” Evelyn began. “Is my Medigaps policy still in effect?”

“Why wouldn’t it be, dear? Let me check.”

Evelyn waited expectantly. Suddenly her gallstone pain returned with a vengeance. “Is it? She asked, almost gasping.

“Of course it is, my dear Mrs. Saguaro.” A month later, Evelyn’s surgery was successful and her cacti-shaped stones were displayed on her mantle, and on the VGB Sufferers website as a digital photo – for all to see.

Andy’s parents, Don and Jane, were a little opportunistic, some might say exploitive. Andy was diagnosed with progeria at three, and by the time he was four, the condition was in full swing. The little boy only three feet tall looked around seventy-eight. He was cute as most toddlers go, but not in the traditional sense. His little wispy growth of hair was beyond gray, more a fading white, like old man snow. It was a little like that Brad Pitt movie. Wrinkles lined his face like detour lines, directing the traffic of his experience in the wrong direction. But his curse was not the rare, incurable disease, but was instead Andy’s parents. They not only failed to love their son, they weren’t above exploiting him for personal gain, if they could find an angle.

Don had once been a carnival barker traveling state to state. “It’s too bad this wasn’t forty years ago,” he told Jane, “We could have sold Andy to a freak show.” Andy was out of earshot reading a Bugs Bunny book up in his room when this particularly callous remark was uttered. The boy was perceptive well beyond his years and already learned to read more than cartoonish rabbit stories. Did he know the history of P.T. Barnum? It was within the realm of possibility.

Jane voiced her own cruel suggestion in a whisper, out of consideration for her son, she said. “We could go on Oprah,” she said, “and maybe cash in.”

Finally they learned about term life insurance policies, and how some California insurance agents sold it. They picked the California insurance agent straight out of a brand new phone book, Pacific Bell ding-ring-a-ling. The next day they were in the agent’s door, little Andy in tow. He was quite inured to being paraded in front of strangers. For him it was normal. He knew that his parents didn’t love him. Kids can sense such things. He was a quiet child though, and extremely polite.

At first the agent was polite, not realizing the parents’ intentions. “How can I help you?” he asked, naïve to this particular nuance of greed. His Thousand Oaks office brought in a motley crew of potential customers, though few of this ilk. The California insurance agent sized up the couple quickly, but the child, why was he so old? He vaguely guessed the illness he had; feeling a wave of compassion, but the name … it didn’t come to mind. The little boy smiled, melting the agent’s heart.

“We want a term life insurance policy, on our son,” Don said nonchalantly, as if he were merely sneezing. It was at that moment when the agent understood the enormity of it all.

“Get out,” he said, “of my office.” He felt like calling a social worker, or maybe a cop. But the boy emphasized with the agent, the marvelous little boy. “Don’t worry, sir,” he said in his little pipsqueak voice, “I’m like that movie.”

Sam had a decent job, was engaged to be married to a beautiful girl, and watched college basketball’s annual March Madness on his newly purchased 50 inch Sharp brand flat screen as if the games were all that mattered. His favorite team was Fresno State, but he also liked Pepperdine and Gonzaga, the latter because NBA great John Stockton had once played there. In fact, he was in the kitchen, opening a can of tuna, when Pepperdine was playing Gonzaga in an exciting Elite 8 match up. It had been halftime, but now the second half was just starting. The commentary was fierce, and he was missing the game. The tuna can was stubborn and the can opener was like the television, sharp, sharper than most knives. Sam wasn’t paying enough attention. The way he held the opener, and the angle of the can, and the force he was mustering. He slipped, felt a sudden surge of pain, also sharp. Was that blood gushing out of a wound in the webbing between his index finger and his thumb? It was. The can of tuna crashed to the floor. “What a mess,” Sam said, while gritting his teeth, and he wasn’t referring only to the spilled tuna.

He called 911. “My hand,” he whispered, “There’s blood everywhere.”

The operator got his vital information, especially address, after he repeated his situation several times. “I’ll send an ambulance,” the operator finally said.

Sam thought again. “Do I have health insurance?” he asked himself. “Am I covered?” Fighting back the pain and able to create a makeshift tourniquet out of his fiancée’s blouse that was lying around the kitchen, he managed to stop the bleeding, if only enough to make a second call, to Matt Lockard, a friendly California health insurance agent he’d once considered purchasing a policy from. Sam and Matt went way back. His parents were long-time Lockard customers. “Hi Matt. This is Sam Rollins. Remember me?”

“Yeah.”

“An ambulance is coming for me. I cut my hand real bad. Do I have insurance? Am I covered?”

Matt unfortunately knew the answer. “You considered purchasing a policy Sam.”

“So I’m not covered?”

“Nope.”

“So this ambulance and the emergency room visit is really going to cost me?”

“Yup.”

“It’s going to cost me an arm and a leg?”

“At least a hand, financially speaking; emergency room care isn’t cheap.”

The Elberts, James, wife Jane, and the kids – Patrick, Jorel, and Wendy – at first glance epitomized the average American family living in La Puente. Dark-haired with pleasant, angular faces, they weren’t ugly; each was well-spoken and polite, although Wendy the youngest was only nine.  On second glance, one noticed that each of them possessed seven fingers on each hand, and if their bare feet were inspected, seven toes on each foot. When 17-year-old Jorel was in an accident at the factory, he proved to be less than a Superman; one of two left index fingers had been nearly severed at the second joint in a slicing machine. At the hospital, Jorel came in with his Dad. The first question asked by an on-duty intake woman seemed like a given, “Do you have insurance young man?” The teenager was lapsing into shock, but managed to look at his father who handled the visual cue appropriately. “No, he doesn’t,” the seven-fingered man admitted. “Why not?” the diligent hospital employee asked, musing about bills never paid when patients prove indigent. When James scratched his forehead in plain view, she considered if she wasn’t being given an extra finger or two. She finally smiled pleasantly when the man assumed responsibility then and there. “I’ll sign for the bills!”

Jorel was admitted, and the hospital saved his finger.

But this incident gave way to serious soul-searching on the part of Mr. Elbert. “Why don’t we have a family plan?” he pondered. Deep down, he knew. During his otherwise uneventful childhood, James had been told by a wizened grandmother figure living in the home that because he had seven digits on each limb, that he was cursed, and if he ever married a woman with more digits than she was entitled to “by a just God,” then at the very least their family would someday be categorically denied family health insurance coverage. Still, he possessed extraordinary courage and picked up the phone, his fingers like a spider’s legs, and called the first California health insurance agent that came into view.

It was Matt Lockard. After hearing the story, he made his comment succinct. “Wizened grandmother figures always say that in situations like yours. That’s why they don’t sell family plans.”

Bill and Edna Octavian each came from large families. Raised as friendly neighbors among the majestic redwoods of Mt. Shasta country, Bill was seventh of ten children; Edna was third eldest in an “old-fashioned” family of eleven siblings. When they married as childhood sweethearts in 1986, it was not surprising that Edna was soon “expecting.” Fifteen offspring later, she finally became content just to mother the ones she’d already had. “Cheaper by the dozen,” Bill liked to say, and the first dozen; Cynthia, Edna Jr., Sam, Trevor, Robert, Fred, Karen, Octavia, Peter, Simone, Clifton, and Roger, seemed that way at times, but then along came Paul, Maureen, and Sippy. In fact, it was Sippy’s broken arm (she fell from a backyard redwood while playing “I can see ALL the Octavians!”), that precipitated the discovery: The family no longer had health insurance! They’d had it back in the early 1990s when Sam was still the youngest, but they’d allowed that plan to expire, not giving it undue thought being preoccupied with other matters, and now all these kids later, it seemed that even finding a decent plan suited to their prolific circumstances would prove a task suitable for Paul Bunyan. But how to pay for Sippy’s surgery, there’s the rub. Bill felt overwhelmed and decided to pay the hospital bill out of pocket. But being a mere copywriter at an advertising agency, he suddenly worried about the next time. Fortunately, he knew just what to do. “I’m going to find us a California health insurance agent,” he told Edna. Edna, prone to pinching pennies, in this case unwisely, screamed, “No Bill, don’t do it! What if it’s a long distance call?” But Bill was undeterred.

A few days later, The Octavians not only had their “king-sized” family plan, as Bill and Edna referred to it, but also a CURRENT and extremely helpful California health insurance agent to call their own. “He’s a nice man,” little Sippy said matter-of-factly, her arm still encased in a cast.

In the Flotsam family, the kids were always “going at it,” as their exhausted mom Doreen would tell it. “Stop it! Stop fighting!” she’d scream quite often, while referring to ten-year-old Johnny and eight-year-old Ben. During any given moment, an observer might notice Flossy, the family’s beloved Angora, gazing at the kids with a pet cat’s disinterest while Johnny gripped Ben in a fierce headlock, or Ben wrestled Johnny to the ground and punched him in the face, or either boy’s matchbox cars became metallic projectiles thrown with surprising force and speed, and exclamations of pain, “Owwh!” followed by a cry for Doreen to referee, “Mommy! He hit me!” These ceaseless exhibitions of sibling animosity continued as long as each child was conscious, and although Doreen would enviously watch shows featuring Super Nannies coming to the rescue, at her otherwise pleasant home, not even a ceasefire was in sight. So when her husband Denis returned home to their Rancho Bernardo sanctuary after too many sessions listening to a litany of kid woes (Denis worked as a child psychologist), Doreen needed to vent. “Do something!” she screamed at her possibly passive-aggressive hubby, “What if Johnny or Ben really hurt each other?” Denis knew that their family was “covered” in case of routine medical emergencies, but as he passively pondered the situation, a matchbox car came whizzing past his head; it looked like a miniature Chevy Vega. “Who threw that?” he bellowed. “I didn’t!” yelled Johnny and Ben in a rare show of synchronicity. Seconds later, Denis was on the phone to his friend Matt Lockard, a California health insurance agent, better than any TV nanny. “We need the kid’s plans you told me about!” he screamed into the receiver.

Matt, cool as a cucumber, said, “Let’s make an appointment then.” Three days later, Johnny and Ben still fought like little Banshees, but at least they were covered. Good thing too, because that afternoon, Ben threw Flossy across the living room at an unsuspecting Johnny.
