Hi @srgmsx, thank you for opening this discussion. All questions of any kind are allowed and encouraged on our forums! Let me tag some other members who may be able to share their thoughts with you.
Hi everyone, how are you doing? Have any of you have any issues with insurance throughout your journey with cancer, be it government-funded insurance (Medicare, Medicaid, Marketplace) or private insurance?

I completely understand as I don’t have anyone to talk to also. I’m a widow & I live alone. My oldest son died in 2021 & my youngest son & his family live 3 hours. My father is dead & my mother has chronic back pain & is immobile. My younger sister lives with our mother & she is going through a divorce from her husband who abandoned her. My sister doesn’t visit me, help me, call me & rarely texts me. I have various cousins, a niece & nephew that are spread out in nearby states but are hours away from me. After I told my friends I had cancer, they quit contacting me. I have learned how to be my own care giver. It has been very difficult. I’ll admit I’ve been depressed, cried a lot, felt sorry for myself but I never gave up. I prayed & read my Bible everyday. Then I found cancer groups online like this one where I could share what I was going through & got empathetic responses. That really kept me going. I hope you find someone to talk to but I highly recommend the online cancer chat groups.

Hi! I don't know if these questions are allowed, sorry if I'm wrong. But did you guys find it easy to find insurance when you have cancer? Do they cover your needs or is there something missing? :)
