I understand your grief and exasperation about the insurance situation. Have you tried to contact the American Cancer Society. It seems I have heard they have some financial assistance programs, but I know very little about them.
Other than that I don't have any suggestions. Hopefully others will give helpful opinions.
In the meantime, I know it's difficult to quit smoking and drinking, but you have to try.
