Re: Crossroads
You have alot on your plate and have laid it out well. Does your cancer treatment facility have a social worker who you could consult with? They often know the ins and outs of benefits and what resources might be available to you. They see alot of these situations and might be able to offer some clarity or give you options you had not thought of.
And it may sound silly but I believe in "signs"when in a tight spot. Just kind of stay open to something someone says or some indication that points to a certain path. I try to kind of pause in the turmoil and wait for an answer. They can come from unexpected places. Sorry not to have more concrete advice. But keep the faith.
