I wish I had some words of wisdom for you , but I am in the dark. Most Hospitals have the treatments for free if you can't afford to pay for them. Talk to the Social Workers at the Hospitals. They can fill you in and get you help. You can even agree to make amonthly payments of $5.00 and they will have to take that. JUst as long as it is an honest effort on your part. Good luck and I will pray for both of you in church this morning... Jim
