I think your case is a perfect example of why there is a demand for the support of the private insurance industry.
Government let you down. Government wants to provide for everyone, but it can't. The insurance industry is in the business of risk management. Their livelyhood depends upon providing you an adequate service.
For example. I am in the same boat. Working part time and going to school part time. I can't afford massive health care coverage either, but I sacrafice some shopping, and possable vacationing to purchase my own minimum health care plan. Now I have to pay out the wazoo if I get an infection, but major emergencies -like cancer- are covered to a specific amount. I am buying assurance that for *some* drastic measures I wont go personally bankrupt.
