A new facility has opened here where out of town cancer patients and their families can stay while they are in treatment. This one is run by the American Cancer Society. When you go for treatment ASK to speak with a medical social worker or patient omsbudman. They should be able to help you find an alternative to driving yourself back and forth and perhaps a place to stay and rest for a few hours after treatment if you must drive back.
