Hi Connie!

Gosh Im sorry to read this!!! Ive always kept up with all of your posts and was hoping your recent posts were a false alarm. Please let us know how the doctors appointment goes and what options are presented (probably just the surgery). You've had such a rough road with your stubborn patient doing his own thing regardless of what he's been advised to do. Definitely NOT an easy patient!

If your husband is smoking and/or drinking again, its time for him to get serious and make up his mind to quit, permanently! This info should be shared with his medical team. He should also consider talking openly and honestly with his doc about whats going on that hes staying in bed for 3 months.

Heres a link from the main OCF site for financial help. I dont know what is available in your area or if your husband meets the requirements but its worth a look. The American Cancer Society helped me with covering prescriptions co-pays and picked up some of my transportation costs too. Back then (2007-2009) they gave up to $300 worth of services which was a big help at the time. Hopefully theres options that will help make this easier.

Please keep us posted!!! Best wishes with everything!!!!
