Hi Gang,
As we near the end of tx we are realizing that going back to work may not be as quick of an option as we thought. This will mean we have to go into the world of Cobra. We have not communicated this with our employer yet because Kev is still hoping to go back by January. (We JUST finished rad and chemo last week.)
Is there anywhere to find resources with help paying the Cobra payments? I think it will be quite expensive and even with his ss disability we just don't have any extra. We don't have enough for what we need already.
Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kathy
