“Months after the Boston Marathon bombing, J.P. Norden is still recovering from losing his leg, but he can’t cash a $1.2 million check provided to survivors because he would lose his state health insurance for the poor.

They told The Washington Post that they are very aware they would quickly use up the $1.2 million with their ongoing medical expenses.”
