My friend is in her 6th month of fighting breast cancr, she's a real trooper, but the medical bills are rolling in as she has to co-pay 20% of the invoices. Any advice for resources that could assist with help paying the $30,000 in bills that she has right now?

    There are many foundations that are there just for this purpose...Give the ACS (1-800-ACS-2345) a call. Also have her check with church, or other charity organizations in her area. FINALLY, could she be eligible for low income assistance? Check with social services. Or the social worker at her treatment center.
    Hugs, kathi
