My brother had stage IV testicular cancer and a mass in his abdomen. He did not have health insurance of any kind and they took him in and gave him chemo, and his surgery. He spent a good 3 months there, they were wonderful to him....Thank God he made it through all of it....don't give up!!!! Carol
