Rick Posted July 26, 2003 Share Posted July 26, 2003 I have received a private message from a visitor today and need help getting some answers for them. Here is the message : Not sure of how to access you as a new member. I've been reading the message boards for a month or two, as my husband was diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung Cancer in April, 2003. Started Carboplatin/Taxotere. Had TIA end of April. Radilation Oncologist ruled out mets. He recovered right away. Had another CVA in July. Going to check if sroke or mets. Very worried. I teach, need to go to work again in a couple of weeks. How do I get help for my hubby during the day? He has difficulty making good judgement calls as result of latest CVA. Thank you for any and all suggestions. Your organization is amazingly knowledgeable and caring. Would appreciate help and direction with this situation. Please send your responses as a post here or email me direct Hopefully everyone knows how to access me by now... LOL... either Rick@lungacnersurvivors.org or admin@freeimail.net Thanks in advance!!!!

kimblanchard Posted July 27, 2003 Share Posted July 27, 2003 Rick I have a few suggestions. I feel sure the Oncologist's office could direct this lady to a Social Worker who probably deals with this type thing on a daily basis. There seems to be several different type agencies that we can take advantage of - - - - probably just different in each area. Suggest to her to start asking the oncologist and go from there,. Hope this helps a little. Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
