Hi Cindy:

Cancer makes for trying times and it is very hard to worry about paying bills when worrying about surviving this ordeal is probably uppermost in your mind instead.
But, reality does intervene...

My advice to you is to see if the hospital where your husband is receiving treatment has a case management department. This department is usually staffed by nurses who follow the client as an inpatient and often help find and set up outpatient services. There are funds available here in Massachusetts for persons who are out of work due to cancer related treatment. Although I am unsure how it works in your state, it is worth checking options. I can tell you that it seems help is not well advertised(hmm...wonder why that is?). A fellow patient who was ahead of my fiance Dave in the treatment process happened to mention that if we had financial difficulties there may be short-term help.

If the hospital doesn't have a case management department(most major medical centers do) try checking with the social service department.

My best to you and your husband during the treatment process. I look forward to following his progress.

Kim
