Aman named "Orlando," who is in the U.S. illegally from Venezuela, was overjoyed to tell NBC News that he has gotten free medical care for cancer treatments after arriving in the country, but NBC also notes that American citizens are often being turned away from New York hospitals and social services that are inundated with border crossers.
According to the NBC News report, "Orlando" -- who won't give his full name due to "safety concerns" -- was diagnosed with esophageal cancer six months after he arrived in the U.S.A. Now he is getting free chemotherapy and radiation treatments and free doctor's care.
This is health care that costs Americans tens of thousands of dollars to keep them alive, but "Orlando" is getting it all for free. And he is fully aware of the costs.
"The therapies, the chemo -- all of that is out of control," he said about how expensive if would have been for him in Venezuela. "I would have passed away by now."
