You dont have time to save money, the earlier your father starts treatment the better the outcomes. It is very important that you do what ever you have to, beg barrow or steal to get him on a plane home so they can start treatment immediately. It could mean the difference of them being able to knock the tumor into remission, treat the disease trying to extend the length and quality of his life (maybe for years) or being told he has 3 months to live.
Im fighting cancer right now(I have great insurance), i cannot impress upon you how important it is for him to get into treatment ASAP

While this is not the same thing at all; this goes to our immigration policy of allowing families to re-unify even though the arriving parents will not be expected to be "productive". Nonetheless they must be able to support themselves or their sponsor must for a period of TWENTY years. Whooeee.
Our government is limiting those numbers to keep costs to our system controlled.
I promise in the name of God and my heart that I'm not rich, nor do I own any house. I live on Long Island in 2 bedroom apartment. Since many Europeans were bashing the U.S. and its lifestyle on European forum, I tried to defend our nation by saying I own a mansion and great opportunity this nation offers. I love America, so I had to defend it in some way. I wish I did not do it or lie, but it's too late. However, that house belongs to my cousin's neighbor. My cousin is wealthy, but unfortunately they do not help out anyone with money.
Sorry again everybody. I hope you forgive me for lying to other members. But hopefully one day I could own a house like that, become rich, and help my parents out, and anyone in need.
Health care is very important. I cannot wait for Obamacare.
PS: I will take a closer look at that Charity program. Some of you were cold hearted and selfish, while some were very thoughtful and amazing supporters. May God Bless all of you.
Why should we believe you?
That's not true.
You started a thread in the Europe folder to scream US number one, Europe sucks, and anyone can read it.

You change your stories and backtrack too much to have any credibility.

Actually the unemployment rate where we come from is lower than it is in America, and small gap between rich and poor. You confuse with eastern and southern Europe.
Wait, in another thread, you said that only you and your parents moved to the US.
That everyone else stayed in and lives all over Europe.
Which is it?

In another thread you said that they were born and raised in Belgium.

I'm ashamed and embarrassed that you'd equate being a conservative with being a complete heartless a$$hole. That isn't being a conservative--that's being a pitiful human being. The best part is that most of you loudly and proudly proclaim yourselves Christians in the same breath. If that's how most of you who call yourselves conservatives now feel, it tells me how far the R party has sunk. If that's what you call Christian faith, then my Jesus has never met yours. Most of this thread disgusts me.
Well then, lots of pitiful human beings are conservatives; seems to be the hallmark. Sadly.

Far away, and I do not want to ever meet people who are heartless and soulless like you.
On Sunday, ask for God's forgiveness over your disgusting behavior at this forum. You are clearly not a good Christian follower for sure.
You didn't even wish my father well and prayers. You act like you are the only hardworking person in America paying taxes.
Can it with the religious garbage.
Christians don't have the market on anything, unless you're catholic, then it seems you have a market on pedophilia.
I guess you forgot about the 8th commandment, thou shalt not lie.
Correct. They had green card for couple of years, and then obtained citizenship.
I used to work for immigration, your stories are all out of whack.

Bringing a priest doesn't mean anything except that you better hide your young kids.

Some of you are telling me that my parents could buy health care plan - how could they possibly afford that with combined income of $1K? Their monthly rent is $800 + electricity, and barely have any dollars left. Thank God they receive food stamp, otherwise they would eat noodles only and basically starve. Hopefully they do not cut that out either
Why is that? You posted on another forum that you own this house:
