    I believe that they said the oxapalitin (sp?) was the one not covered by Medicare. But Monday we start the oxapalitin and leucoverin at a county hospital to make payments for his treatments. I was on the path to checking with the makers of xeloda to seek assistance but we went back to the original treatment.

    I feel bad because as we kept hearing that our cancer did not have funding, dad said “I guess they think I’m a lost cause since this is terminal”. Broke my heart. But we are NOT giving up!!

    Dcmac1972,
    Do you feel the chemo made his condition worse, or the cancer progressed? I’ve heard so many stories how the chemo actually made things more painful.

    Dad’s primary care is through MD Anderson and they have been wonderful there.
