i estimated $500,000 to a million before we got started. My dad thought I was crazy but then he's 83 yrs old and been to the doctor three times in his life...2 were accidents. I don't have any hotel stays but 35 days of driving 2 hours just for radiation. I don't think we will qualify to take medical expenses on our taxes because of the deductible.
