She kept (keeps) all the the bills re my cancer out of my sight since she is convinced it would upset me and lead to more cancer. I did see one bill for a Cat scan and it was billed out as $4600 which I thought was very high but in line with what my wife was telling me about the radiation Txs. Maybe I got the premium grade radiation stuff. LOL
