Please if you are going to give information make sure that it's accurate and a reliable source. It's confusing and frightening enough without filling Michelle with false information or hopes in her search for treatment.
MicheleM~there is help regardless of insurance. You do not have to short cut your treatment. I see woman without insurance receiving care and treatment. Have you spoke to the hospital social workers or the American Cancer Association? Also Avon and the Susan G. Korman Foundation have programs that help those without insurance. Please do not take no as an answer for your diagnosis. |
There is a TV commercial here talking about Gamma knife not just being for Brain cancer anymore, for a hospital I believe in Spokane Wa. but may be Seattle. I have been trying to catch the full commercial again since this thread started but with my daycare it's not been easy. When I see it again I will deff get the name of the Hospital. This is not something I have been misinformed about , it is a hospital advertising it on TV, not something I just heard off the street.
