CANCER CROSSING ASSISTS LUNG CANCER PATIENT WAITING FOR BENEFITS TO START, WITH COST OF MEDICATION

 Cancer Crossing has assisted a woman from the Interlake Region of Manitoba with lung cancer.

She has had a series of unfortunate events that involved a prior health condition that caused her to be off work, and as she was on a back to work program, she was diagnosed with lung cancer.  As a result, she has no sick time remaining.  Her spouse has recently been laid off - which only exacerbates the situation.

She will be receiving EI Sickness benefits but she is in a service gap so has no extended health benefits and she is finding access to medication for pain and reflux resulting from radiation treatment, unaffordable.

Cancer Crossing has assisted this patient with the cost of medication. 


Cancer Crossing helps those who 'fall between the cracks'.
