The first danse macabre appeared in Paris between 1424 and 1425 – on the back wall of a charnel house in Holy Innocents’ Cemetery.

Unfortunately for this gothic traveller, the site is better commemorated as the location where King Henry IV was assassinated. (Ironically, it’s his assassination that led to the piece’s destruction.)

Due to rising costs, my surgeon is now charging me 500€ for my surgery. That's if I don't have a « mutuelle » (insurance). If I have one, there is no out-of-pocket cost. The monthly cost of the mutuelle is 30€ to 100€ a month.

The same surgery in the US costs around $20,000 without insurance. With it, you have co-pays, deductibles, partial coverage and potentially uncovered procedures.
