Hospice or treatment?

@artistrose , Many of our treatments are very expensive. It's shocking isn't it? I have to assume that insurance covers most of the cost for many of us. The reality is that cost can come into play when deciding what the next steps are. The world of insurance is complicated. I wonder if a social worker at your oncology center may be able to link you with a business services specialist to help understand what you may be facing depending on the type of treatment options you have. Have you had a chance to speak with anyone there about it?

@lls8000 I see the oncologist in 3 weeks for the first time. I guess from there I'll talk with other folks. So, I guess I’m just in this limbo state right now.
