she just had a masectomy but the doctor told her they didn’t get all and need to have chemotherapy. she lives in the caribbean (st.kitts) and there’s no treatment CENTRE there. i’m currently on active duty deployed in iraq and i’m so distracted and going out of my mind trying to find help for her. does anyone know if there’s a medical type of visa that’s allowed for travel for medical treatment and what the process is to get one if there is? could anyone recommend an insurance company to enroll her with so i could make these payments? aslo by any chance would anyone out there know if there’s any organization set up for people living in the caribbean, diagnosed with cancer to get some kind of assistance? it’s hard finding money to buy a loaf of bread (literally)where will someone with cancer find 150,000.00 (treatment, doc cost + airfare). just seems like a definate death sentence without a chance to fight.
Never realized how third world it is til it hit home. but like i said i’ll fund my sisters treatment. i just shudder to think about the people who have no help.
thanks for taking the time to read and whatever input/advice offerred.

hi, i know living with cancer and having it are 2 different things and that families cope with it in different ways.
i found that when i got diagnosed in 2007 that cancer help.com and cancer.org were a great help to me they showed me the different types of treatment and options that i had. i hope they can help you as much as they helped me
