In terms of the debt they owed ~ would SW having chronic lupus and a child or both children with chronic illness/illnesses as stated on SW facebook page, topped with the high risk pending pregnancy and medical care/fees, would not they have acquired additional medical costs since their bankruptcy filing July 2015? I am not in the USA and I am not familiar with medical coverages or costs but did CW have medical benefits or were these medical costs accumulating and out of pocket expenses. If so, they were already in debt for $740 to Choice Recovery in Columbus, Ohio, for health and chiropractic services; $1,301 to Kaiser Permanente for medical services; and $2,612 to Good Samaritan Medical Center at the time of the bankruptcy filing, July 2015. Since the filing in 2015, their second daughter was born and I don't know how much that costs in USA to deliver a child.
I would assume that they incurred additional medical costs for their second child.
What I wonder is if these medical expenses were increasing along with other expenses, so to would the anxiety. However, it seems that with the bankruptcy
Chapter 7 filing in Colorado, if approved by the court, allows debtors to hold onto and keep making payments on assets such as a house and car but offers a “fresh start” by eliminating other debts, according to ColoradoBankruptcy.com. Did SW and CW get that fresh start and cleared on other debts? or was it still accumulating?
