      My journey with this disease is just starting so I can't give you proper advice. Except that I hope all goes well for you tomorrow and the prognosis is good.

      Thank you for the advice.  I have been trying to get something through the county but, was not given due process (never called my employer to verify the income I reported or sent me a denial letter) I am hoping to try to apply again. Medicaid services for cancer can be tough as doctors here don't take it or have long wait times but, I will keep trying.

      Thank you for your efforts. I have been making calls but, resources are in short supply. I will definitely  look into the Hill-Burton program. Although I have read that the governor here has done a large budget cut. But thank you again.
