check with local ACS group
Rick, do try getting on the phone with a local ACS chapter in the city where your daughter gets her treatments. In addition to sponsoring the Look Good, Feel Better program for women, they can sometimes help with networking, for example linking up your daughter with other chemo patients in her area.
You can also post in the forum for her type of cancer. Quite a bit of networking goes on there, including some Facebook groups. Wish I had more to offer. I have a grown daughter, too. -
Contact ACS
I agree that you should have your daughter contact the American Cancer Society. The is an 800 number if she can't find a local office. There are a number of services that she might be able to use. I know ours has a group of volunteer drivers. Your daughter moth also check with a local church and ask friends. We discovered during my husband's 6year battle that people really want to help but don't always know how. Best wishes, Fay -
