Many of the CCC's have a Hope Lodge that offers a suite at no charge while you are undergoing treatment..no income parameters are considered. I think their biggest requirement is that there is a caregiver residing with the patient. The one we toured at Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa, Fl was extremely nice.
Just a thought,
