Brenda,

I am just taking a shot here....Your nurse who is her superior? (no reflection on her) but she needs someone with clout to get in involved. Can the cancer or hosptial administrator get involved....or social services? It is time for her to get administration involved...it is a crime that you have to endure this.

Maybe you could contact your nurse's superior and tell them she is doing
all she can...but you want your meds. There must be higher ups that can
get involved. It is just not acceptable that they promised they have shipped
and it is not done. I get so annoyed when I hear these things.

I do not know about this free trial...but could you contact the drug company
that is supporting it and explain what is going on and perhaps they will
get involved - or have a resource dept. that can jump in - I would think they would care enough that their drug is not getting to the patient. I don't know what else to recommend, other than that I wish I knew more to be of greater
help to you. Please keep us updated.

Regards,
Jean
