Another Cancer Victim


Hello.

I recently have been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer that has spread to my liver. I have one more test to do today, a PET scan. Then I will be meeting with my cancer doctor on Friday to make a treatment plan. The cost that it's going to involve is overwhelming. I have insurance, but the co-pays are high. The Cancer Center said they could help me with finding assistance to pay my medical bills. I don't know how much, but it must be enough for them to proceed with treating me. So that much is taken care of, I believe, but it's my everyday bills that have got me in a bind. I have a job that I haven't been doing too much because of sickness, and other than that, I have my social security check. I recently had to move, and all I could find was a place for double what I am used to paying, and the utilities in this town are also more costly. So, there is where I need help. Everyone knows the cost of groceries goes up every time you go to the store, it seems like. I do go to a food bank, but it's only available to me once a month, so it doesn't last long. And then the gas it takes to go to the center. It takes about 3/4 of a tank for a round trip. I am overwhelmed with all that is happening to me right now and I could use some help so I can make it by. I need a good state of mind during whatever treatments I receive and a good diet. It's not good for me to be upset and worried about everything during treatments. If anyone can help me, I would so appreciate it. I'm single, so it's only my income that I probably won't have for a while, but I do get my social security. Thanks in advance to anyone willing to help me.


UPDATE

I would like to thank my daughter Carrie, and my friend Audrey, also my Grandson Aron "chugs" Mason dor devoting their lies to making my journey the best it can be. I love you all and cherish the time you are here. also the chance for us to makes memories. you'll never know how much it really touches me for your love and support!
