My father-in-law was diagnosed with hep C and cirrhosis in december of 07. He has been on peg and rib, but his white cells went down so low that they took him off the meds and put him on neupogen. He is now going to a specialist in Atlanta. Now they want to start him on chemo. He was recently found to have esophageal varices and has to go to the Mayo Clinic to get them removed. They want to do this before he starts the chemo. He can't lift anything over 20 pounds so therefore he is applying for temporary disability through his company because they told him he can no longer work until he gets this situation under control. I personally don't think he will ever work again. They said if this chemo does not work then this is the last option. Even if they do a transplant, he would have to go through three transplants just to live to be an old man. My question is....Is there any help out there financially? some kind of organization that will help for co-pay, gas to doctor offices, daily living expenses, ect? We need help. Please does anyone have any info?
