My son was only 33 at diagnosis, with no job and no insurance and he is doing fine now, 7 years later! Most hospitals have departments that can help with financial assistance. And here, you have found the best place for the latest and best information, and compassionate help from people who have been where you are. So stay with us and let us know what's happening.
