I’m going to go against the popular opinion and say she might actually need the money. If she’s on Medicare, not Medicaid, there are actually a lot of costs you have to cover. If she is on ssdi, which I believe she would qualify for, she would have Medicare. If she is on ssi, she would have Medicaid. This could vary by state, but I doubt it.

First, Medicare isn’t free. You pay for it, even if you are on social security disability. Usually around $150/month, maybe more or less depending on which plans you have, and it comes out of your ssdi payment.

Then there are copays, and whatever Medicare doesn’t cover. I have never handled anything cancer related like chemo so I can’t say for sure how much is covered but I would be very surprised if it was totally covered.

Many places will let you make monthly payments of maybe $25 but usually more like $50, or give a 20% discount on the total bill.

If she has insurance through her husband (?) then We all know how insurance is in the US. She probably needs the money.

I don’t doubt she needs the money. I’d be shocked if she didn’t with or without coverage from her husband. She’s clearly lower income to start with and lives in an area where she’d have to seek treatment in other cities. The travel expense for her alone would add up and you can’t have someone who’s just had chemo drive themselves home. It generally doesn’t work that way.

I don’t begrudge her the GFM, honestly. I just wish she’d stay off YT at the very least and set all her SMto private. You can’t tell me that no one in that hillbilly clan isn’t savvy enough to advise her to do so. Becks, bitch, I’m looking at you. Do right by your mother even though you have no real reason to since she didn’t do right by you.

Medicare would be a really bad scenario, unless she had supplemental, which would be significantly higher than 150, and if she didn't, it would be about 140 a month for part B and a 20% co-insurance on everything (the chemo might be covered under part D with the federal helping hand, and that sets a max of about $15 per prescription/infusion, the radiation wouldn't). It sounds like the original surgery was scheduled to be outpatient, so I'm not sure what part A would cover from that.

If she's on Medicare, 5k (well, less after GFM gets their cut) wouldn't really do much to help.

If she has no income, her husband could be making 2-3k a month, and she'd still qualify for medicaid in Kentucky.

The GFM being in her husband's name indicates to me that she's receiving need-based assistance, be it through charity, state cancer assistance or medicaid, and she doesn't want to increase assets in her name.

RE: the people going back and forth about Hamber "completing" this 100 Days. Don't worry. Even though she will definitely try to pat herself on the fat buffalo hump for it and brag about how proud of herself she is...she didn't actually accomplish squat. She did not film 100 videos and upload on 100 days. Remember - fatty fatty Hamham lazily vlogged several hours' worth of garbage footage in a single day once or twice and then just split it up into 6 or 7 videos and then pre-scheduled them all to auto publish in a queue. Then she blobbed down on her gigantic wide shelf ass and didn't do shit for like three weeks in a row, lmao. Feel free to remind her of this as often as possible once she starts congratulating herself for OnE hUnDrEd DaYs Of UpLoAdInG ~


RE: the Foster care backstory stuff. A few other Kiwis have already touched on it, but the main points are basically that she can't ever keep her lies about her past strait, she's terrified of her mom and Aunt Tammie calling her out, and the reality is that her group home really wasn't actually all that bad, so she doesn't even have a tragic sob story to fall back on as an excuse to justify her shittiness anyway.

Yeah, you are right. I’m not familiar with supplemental plans, but I should be. She could be getting Medicare extra help, but that is (I think, mobile so I can’t check) only for one plan. The prescription drug coverage maybe?

I’m not going to fault her for hiding assets to malk Medicare for as much as she can. Often it costs as much as marketplace plans and is just fucking terrible, and there’s a penalty if you try to leave for better coverage. I’m not going to go on about it because this isn’t the place.

 

[MissLosR]

Do you think it would be worth having a separate thread for all this stuff with Becky's mom or is it dying down/covered by the people in her orbit thread? There's just a surprising amount of stuff being discussed around it/ coming out especially because she's involved herself now.

Spoiler: Medicare/Medicaid sperg

Yeah, part D is the prescription plan, which is the only part that there's a federal helping hand for (as far as I know). When you talk about medicare plans costing as much as marketplace plans, I think you're talking about part C, or supplemental. Like the plans AARP sells, for instance. They typically roll the price of part B into it (and usually part D as well) and act like a regular marketplace insurance plan with copays, deductibles and networks. Whereas medicare alone = part A covers hospital and is free, part B covers doctors and treatments and is 140 a month. There's no network or anything, if it's a service they cover (like they wouldn't cover, say, dental or acupuncture or cosmetic surgery), they pay 80%, which sounds like great, but when you think about how routine blood work can be several thousand or imaging could be in the thousands, 20% co-insurance on 3k is still a crapload of money, or a specialist charging 500 for a routine visit, 150 co-insurance adds up.

These are the kinds of costs Becky's mom would be looking at if she had medicare. If she had supplemental (part C), and didn't have a deductible but still had copayments (60 for a specialist, 60 for top tier drugs, whatever the plan charges), then the 5k would make sense, because she'd have a relatively reasonable out of pocket, but the more reasonable the OOP, the more expensive the supplemental plan, so she could be paying like 5-600 a month premium for that.

That's not even taking into consideration spend-downs (helpful) and the donut hole (circle of doom)

Medicaid would be like an HMO, and cheap or free with cheap or no copays.

When it comes to medicare, and we're all going to be on it someday, you either have to be well off enough to afford supplemental, or poor enough to qualify for medicaid on top of medicare (medicaid then acts as the supplemental) and the federal helping hand. Anything in-between and you're looking at spending most of your social security on healthcare

On one hand, I wouldn't fault her for gaming the system when her life is on the line. On the other hand, if there are waiting lists or she's using (actual, nonGFM) charity or special state funds, then I do fault her because then there are less funds for people who don't have any kind of network to raise 5k. Her healthcare is a mystery to me in general. She lists a whole bunch of expensive illnesses, at least managing COPD could be 1k on just medication alone, but then says she has no income and no insurance. I'm just going to chalk it up to hillbilly healthcare and logic, since the COPD hasn't killed her yet, and the 'betus hasn't claimed a limb or two. (I have no effing clue what fibromyalgia does to a person)

(I have no effing clue what fibromyalgia does to a person)

I get the plans mixed up honestly, I don’t have Medicare myself but I do have to handle it occasionally, always with literature in front of me. It’s a mess, and I think it’s a shame that so many seniors work their whole lives to be shit on like they are once they reach whatever unreasonable age the retirement age is now. 67? 69?

I think medication costs might be a problem for her. If there isn’t a generic for a drug, they can cost hundreds of dollars. Until sometime in the last few years, abilify didn’t have a generic and was $900-$1200 for a 30 day supply. After Medicare. again, no experience with cancer but I can’t imagine the meds are cheap.

I don’t know that she would qualify for Medicaid. If she’s married her income might be too high. But I’m only familiar with my own state. That would indeed be the best case scenario though.

I think fibromyalgia is just general body pain. Maybe some tiredness.

 

[Jeremy Renner]

I think fibromyalgia is just general body pain. Maybe some tiredness.

It really depends with fibro. For some people it's general pain/fatigue but it can run to extremely debilitating depending on the person. You can also end up with neuropathic problems. People do go on disability for things like fibro because it's unpredictable and can't be cured. I wouldn't necessarily put it past anyone in the hillbilly clan to claim fibro because of some aches and pains, but it really can be a serious diagnosis.

It’s taking everything in my power not to power level on this fibro discussion - lol. But when I hear fibro let’s just say I’m crazy skeptical of the people who claim to have it. Generally, I see them as poverty stricken, doctor hopping, stupid people who equate eating shitty, poor exercise, funky sleep hours, ect... (just treating your body like shit) and then complaining you don’t feel well because your feeling shitty and then it kind of feeds on itself. You tell yourself you have fibro so much you start to believe. Anyways. I’ll shut up now. But fibro ALWAYS make me sus of whoever is claiming it.

Weeelll I guess that’s what she gets for wearing the same bra every day for half a decade and cycling through the same few outfits despite the countless Torrid hauls because she can’t accept that she can’t wear the same size she did 100+ lbs ago

Plus she’s had the same 2 bruises on her arm SINCE APRIL??!! Jesus, go to the doctor.

[L. Ron Hubbard's Cat]

Its because her foster Mother and family are aware of her channel and watch it, she doesnt want to create another Aunt Tammy debacle she cant lie and embellish so she wont talk about it.

Yeah, and I have a feeling that the truth about her foster care days isn't "too painful to talk about" so much as it's "not nearly dramatic enough".

Keeping it vague means people can fill in the blanks with whatever horrible circumstances they can imagine, and she gets another excuse to hide behind -- without even needing to maintain a lah. There's nothing for her to gain from talking about it.

Spoiler: foster care situation iirc

She was in foster care with a family who seemed decent. At some point she was in a group home, as well as a "children's shelter" (although relatively briefly -- I don't remember exactly, but I got the sense that the shelter was while they were sorting out the group home/foster home situation). At some point in her mid- to late teens they tried to reunite her with her family, but that failed spectacularly and she went back into the system (perhaps there was another stint in a group home somewhere around this time -- don't remember, but I'm sure someone can/will correct me if I'm wrong). After she aged out of the system, she went back to her family again, and once again failed to make it work. Then Casey came to her rescue.

I'm sure her childhood was unpleasant at best. There's a lot of trauma simply in being taken from your family, even if the rest was perfectly smooth sailing (which I'm sure it wasn't -- shit happens and life's a bitch).

And of course, there were the reasons she was taken into care in the first place. These were bad enough to merit intervention, but by her own admission they were nothing spectacularly abusive or criminally neglectful. She had a rough childhood, but her parents lost custody because they went to jail for drugs, not because they locked her in a closet and starved her. Still. All very sad, all very horrible for a little kid to go through.

But it wasn't extraordinary in any way -- bad or good. That doesn't suit our gorl. She's remarkable, her situation is unique, no one can understand, she's suffered things no one else can possibly comprehend, etc. Run-of-the-mill tragedy isn't enough. No one's gonna write a YA novel based on that.

Plus she’s had the same 2 bruises on her arm SINCE APRIL?‽! Jesus, go to the doctor.

Why? They'll just tell her that she's perfectly hulthy. And maybe try to force her to eat some beef jerky.

One of the est things about the Destiny breakup was that it was a Friday the 13th when she dumped Amberlynn. Our gorl felt this was so poignant she had to point it out in the weepy breakup video.

So essentially there are numerous breakup "anniversaries" every year. I guarantee she'll be salty every Friday the 13th for the rest of her life. Happy friday gorls.
