Charity are there any hospitals

Hi family, its Cindy.  
My daughters symptoms are getting worse.  We are working with two government agencies to try and get medical for her and there is so much red tape.
We have not been able to get her to a neurologist let alone a N.S. since her dx in Aug.
Do any of the hospitals have charity for indigent persons?

Hope everyone is feeling better,
my warmest regards
Cindy Mom of adult woman with Chiari

Hi Selma,

Don't know the regulations here. Was wondering if I can post my e-mail address to maybe write back and forth with questions looking for answers?

Warm regards,
Cindy

I saved this link to look at it later. Not sure if it would help or not.  I just remember seeing something about Financial assistance,  but haven't actually read it yet.
