Brenda,

Does the hospital you use have a cancer navigator? If they dont, ask to be notified when they do. This is a person whose job is to help cancer patients and their families through the various bumps in the road, medical, financial, psychologial, burecratic, etc. Many drug companies now have special programs to help patients who can not afford medications. Also try drugstore chains.
