Kelli...
			
contact the American Cancer Society.

They will be aware of any support agencies that are available and can direct you to them.

financial sources
			
http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/factsheet/Support/financial-resources 


This site is put up by the National Institute of Health or some such, and is government-supported. TereB has responded in other discussion areas with some excellent suggestions, and they may apply for you as well.   I am taking the liberty of copying and pasting them as well:


Cancer Care, a non-profit org., offers free support and counseling for cancer patients by oncology social workers. They have face-to-face counseling and counceling on the phone. Support groups on the phone are available too and are moderated by an oncology social worker. Call 800-813-HOPE. They can also give you info about financial resources. Check their website: www.cancercare.org 


Gilda's Club - www.gildasclub.org - they offer free social and emotional support. Not sure if they may have financial information but check it out just in case. 


Live Strong - www.livestrong.org - offers one-on-one support. 


American Cancer Society (here) can also give you financial, support, etc. information available in different cities.
