(34,661 posts)yes both of her sisters. One passed in August and the other is terminal and in Hospis care. Information is so powerful when dealing with any Cancer,one sister survived her Breast Cancer for two years and then the Lung cancer popped up and with a weakened Immune System,that cancer was aggressive as all get out. Her medicare paid all but her deductible and I think that was 3k. Number two sister has terminal Lung cancer and was so advanced there is zero treatment available other than pain meds. She has zero assets so the State will have to pick up the tab. There again several of us used various web sites to find any and every piece of info and a plan is in place to make sure she is taken care of. Local volunteers are wonderful to work with.
