Ellie Porter is a six year old Utah girl with a rare form of cancer called undifferentiated sarcoma. Thanks to ObamaCARE and the Democrats, Ellie Porter has lost her health care coverage that had been keeping her alive for the last three and a half months. Being forced into the ObamaCARE exchanges, Ellie Porter’s parents not only have to hope the system works properly when they sign up, but also will end up paying double the premiums that they were paying on their previous plan.

Paul and Jami Porter of Kaysville learned last week their insurance plan was terminated under the Affordable Care Act, more than 3 1/2 months into their daughter’s fight with undifferentiated sarcoma began.
Six-year-old Ellie Porter, who has had one kidney removed, just wrapped up her radiation treatments and is expected to be done with chemotherapy around the first of the year.
“You’re getting used to what’s going on; and then all of a sudden having something like this thrown in is definitely challenging and frustrating at the same time,” Paul Porter said.
He and his wife are now in the middle of shopping for a new plan that complies with the Affordable Care Act. He said the old plan didn’t meet some of the requirements, according to a letter from the insurer.
The options the family is weighing have premiums that are more than double the premiums under their previous plan, Paul Porter said.
While there has been one local story about Ellie Porter with KSL, only Fox News picked up the story. If you do a search, you’ll find only a handful of conservative blogs have even bothered covering this story, not the corrupt media.
