That is quite true. I am receiving treatment and funds have NOT been guaranteed. I live in a house that is "mine" in principle but not "mine" on paper. Another member of my immediate family holds the deed, not me. If they sue, there are no assetts for them to get (Unless they want my 1997 Buick; and they might want it).

I am making monthly payments to my oncologists office; the financial co-ordinater there said as long as I do NOT miss even one month of payment, they won't turn me over to a collection agency. I DO have collection agencies, associated with the cost of this care, after me. My mailbox is crammed full of bills daily. The cost of the radiologist's reading, the labs, the cost of the ER docs and hospital when I have been to the ER (once for pain, once for hyperventilation that lasted five hours, once for shortness-of-breath---ya'll have NO idea how hard chemo is to endure--And I'm not exactly the poster child for mental health/strength of spirit and courage, am I?) So---I see a psychologist, a therapist (a breast CA specialist) and my pain management doctor! Every little thing has a price tag attached.

What would you do if you were me? (i.e. "Poor")
