Is COBRA worth it after a layoff? - what worked for you?

I just got my COBRA paperwork and the deadline to decide is close. There are 4 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. My spouse has a chronic condition, so dropping coverage feels risky.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 11 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
