All questions · How you are actually doing

What help exists that nobody tells you about?

Usually more than you expect. Money back for travel and parking, help with drug costs, meals, wigs, help at home, and grants from cancer charities most people never hear of.

Ask for the social worker or the financial navigator by name. This is their entire job, they are usually free, and almost nobody is told they exist.

Written by two physicians. Checked against patient information from the US National Cancer Institute and Cancer Research UK.
