&nbsp;  &nbsp;  &nbsp; For four days, the Coast Guard has scoured the waters off of Tampa Florida looking for any sign of Oakland Raiders linebacker Marquis Cooper, free-agent NFL defensive lineman Corey Smith and former South Florida player William Bleakley.
&nbsp;  &nbsp; Their friend Nick Schulyer was rescued after just two days at sea.&nbsp; His doctors say it&#8217;s a miracle he&#8217;s alive considering the men were in 63 degree water for so long. 
&nbsp;  Spartanburg paramedic Timothy Hancock is on the Specialized Rescue Team and says, &#8220;The  water is going to pull the heat away from the body so it doesn&#8217;t take long for you to become hypothermic.&#8220;
&nbsp;  &nbsp; He says anytime you are in water below 95 degrees for several hours you risk hypothermia.            ]]></description>

&nbsp;  For many people the walls of a hospital are not what you want to see in your final days of life, especially knowing you can&#8217;t afford to be there.&nbsp; According to Jennifer Pooley with Hospice Care of South Carolina most patients are more comfortable at home. 

&nbsp;  &nbsp;  She says,&nbsp; &#8220;You are surrounded by your family your loved ones and you can die in a setting that is familiar to you  that is comfortable that makes those final days a lot more peaceful.&#8220;

&nbsp;  &nbsp; That&#8217;s what Hospice provides to patients, but South Carolina state budget cuts almost made that impossible for patients who only qualify for Medicaid.            ]]></description>
