@memoriestomoments You are awesome!! So much great info !! Thank you soo much!! I am doing most of your suggestions..and my office is full now of medical records..each dr has their own "book"..good and not so.. one of the reasons I joined some of these groups.. awesome ..so helpful!! I also watch Joni Table Talk on Daystar..lots of drs interviewed on there..I did tell my rheumatologist...it's a sad thing when a patient has to call the scleroderma foundation for answers to questions..( they didn't like that much.. perhaps that's why the diagnosis of something they don''t treat!!) Right now my 82 year old cousin has prostate cancer and can't afford his medication they want him to take..he live in Tennessee.. I remember when the dr told me the Med Dave needed would be high and went to Walgreens to pick it up.. she went "whew" and I said how much is it..?? TWELVE THOUSAND a month in 2011.. so I researched and got the 1st month for $26 from Humana.. would have been over $400 a month but the.. his oncologist , who had been a dr at a VA said the VA carries that.. about that time I got a call from the Chief of Staff at his VA asking what they could do for Dave and I told him .. get him Nexavar.. and we got 3 months free.. I told Dave ..behold these 3 bottles are worth more than your truck..but they did not tell us it only worked on liver and kidney cancer.. and we didn't know.. so I took him to the hospital (outside) and she did a scan and came and called me outside and said.." it's all over in his lymph nodes and he will die soon".. I'll never forget Dave asking her "when will I die?".. he only lasted about 3 more months.. and passed in the living room in one of those "beds".. he looked so bad..I just hollered "Jesus please help my man" and a bright white light shown all in the room and Jesus took him home..I just stood there and the nice young lady who cleaned him up arrived just them and called Hospice to tell them.. never will forget that.. we all need to stand in prayer for our health care..and know Jesus is the real healer..by the way, what does Forza mean..?? Take care and God bless and protect you!!.

You are a fine person and your loved ones are lucky to have you.

Forza! literally means "strength!" but it also means "Go for it!"
