Sketch for an art piece about being denied health care coverage due to a pre-existing condition.
Having arms is a pre-existing condition, yet the insurance bureaucrats don't deny coverage for your ams. Well, so is being alive.

It might be interesting for fellow designers with similar issues to post rebounds about their own stories.

Having a son with diabetes (and having to switch insurance in just 6 months), boy does this hit home.

It's even worse being denied coverage for a condition you no longer have like me! This hits home here as well.

@Cameron, sorry to hear about your son; it's awful that health insurance is such a barrier, when it should be a helpful service that cares for people in need. I thought the new health care measures protected infants against the pre-existing non-sense? I know it will for adults in 2014.
@Dustin, hopefully this will all be a thing of the past soon.
It's hard to imagine a person denying someone in need, but a corporation has no problem with it. These companies are only concerned with corporate-scale wealth, not human health.

Pre-existing condition

Refining the head shape to be less wide. Possibly "existing" is too far to the right — what do you fine folks think?
