I just hit a milestone - I paid my last ACA health insurance premium; I start Medicare May 1st.
The ACA allowed me to retire early (2017), which has given me the opportunity to take much better care of my elderly parents and spend much more quality time with my significantly-older-than-me partner than I would have if I were still working.
In 2018 one of my brothers was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. He lived in Arizona and my parents and I live in Pennsylvania. I was able to take my parents out to visit my brother several times and then back out for the funeral in late 2019. I am so grateful I was retired and could do that for my parents, for my brother, and for me.
Both of my parents have had extended hospitalizations in the past three years, and I was able to spend all day every day with them in the hospital, which gave all of us a lot of peace of mind.
