What am I to do?

Dear Editor:

I have taken seizures from birth and on the death bed six times from having them so bad. Now since I have gotten older, I got high cholesterol. I am now 65 and just got on Medicare. I was told they pay only 80 percent. If I have to pay $59 a month where do I get money to pay the other 20 percent of my medical bills. I take a seizure most of the time and need an ambulance to go to the hospital for a few hours.

The point that I am trying to bring out is my Social Security check is only $700 a month and worry about not being able to pay my medical bills when they come in because this is not the end of taking seizures, plus I’m on medication to control them. What do they think us seniors are supposed to do?

I hope that someone has an answer for me.
