Then we go to the surgeon on Monday for a follow up and a Pet scan later in the day. All of this is very wearing on Ken. The hospital is an hour a way and I am going to see if we can get any treatment done closer to home. Thanks Jodi for all your valuable information. I can see why you said it is best to have the treatment close to home. Please keep the prayers going as we have quite a battle ahead of us. We need a miracle. |
Patti, still praying for you and Ken. Miracles can happen with prayer.
I'm so glad you talked to Jodi, she is the best!! Talk to your insurance company, mine gave me a travel allowance .. It applies to treatment that is 60 miles away. They cover car rental, hotel, gas food etc... That may help.
