I'm really sorry to hear that. When I was a hospital in-patient for 3½ months, I was offered a huge range of support services, from social workers to occupational and physical therapy to psychotherapy to dietician consultations, all funded by the province. But as soon as I came home it was a completely-different situation: I was sent home with a lot of literature and access to a good 9-5/M-F patient-support line at the Cancer Centre, but because I was under 65, didn't live alone, could feed and dress myself, and wasn't in economic need, I was far down the waiting list for any kind of decent homecare (after initial assessments).
