Trayvon Martin dreamed of flying airplanes.

But he was killed in a racist murder in 2012. His death sparked a national conversation about racial profiling &, following the acquittal of his killer, the #BlackLivesMatter movement.

Happy birthday, Trayvon. #TheMarchContinues

I have talked to the pharmacy and your insurance again. Insurance is now saying they will not cover it until tomorrow as tomorrow will be the 24th day since your last refill. The fact that your dosage has increased did not matter, they would not budge.

Thanks United Healthcare for once again denying my pain meds. I'm a cancer patient w a bad prognosis and in constant unmanageable pain, but just keep counting beans.
