She may be eligible for rehab which would be paid by Medicare for a period of time. Had she been hospitalized?

I don't think she has Medicare but I can ask. Yes was hospitalized (cancer). She's currently alone and could use someone a home attendant . She has 2 kids (one works during the day and the other at night), but it's still a strain on the family.

Mary, when my sister had cancer, her oncologist asked if she needed help at home, indicating she could help with that. My sister didn't want any help, so I don't know what could have been done. But I would ask your friend to ask her oncologist.

At that time the American Cancer Society wouldn't help, so I wouldn't consider that organization.

You might contact a local Gilda's Club and ask if they have any suggestions.

Is she by any chance a Veteran, or is her husband a Veteran? If so, there may be help through the VA.
