One of my friends Al-lan moved over to America when he was 17. He became a fireman and was one of the many hundreds involved in 9/11. A year after he was diagnosed with lung cancer. Im not sure of the details but his insurance would not cover him for an entire course of treatment. He was looking at massive medical bills which he could never afford. Because of this he moved back to the UK where he has been treated and given the all clear.
