My son also did it without insurance and no job. He got a 40% discount at the hospital, free Amifostine shots because of a program with the drug company and now that he has a job, they accept very, very low monthly payments. There are still things you can do about getting the help that you need which you can see by just looking at the posts above, but you have to get some of YOUR fight going, too! Stay with us!
