Mother of four, Ms. Carlson is working from home for a disabled organization that provides jobs for people with disabilities. But they don’t provide healthcare for their employees.
A year was all left on her federal COBRA health plan before she's kicked off. Her earnings barely cover that plan now, its co-payments and the 16 different medications she said she needs.
“Cobra currently costs me over $400 a month and my medications and doctor co-pays cost me an additional $200, she says in painful detail and declares, “ I will continue on this crusade by putting my face out in the media and as drastic as it sounds, YES, I will marry for health insurance!!! Please help my cause.”
Brad Carlson, Terri's eldest son, said he was "shocked" when he first learned about his mom's proposal. But, he said, he's sticking by his mother.
"We're very proud of her," said Carlson, 26, of San Diego. "Somebody needs to bring this up."
Her proposal has garnered more than 5,000 e-mails from across the globe, all since Sunday, Ms. Carlson said.
She is working with friends to "weed through" the many suitors.
