My best friends' sister has RSD and Uterine cancer.?

She is in the last stages of the RSD (a form of muscular dystrophy) and has just started chemo. She is only in her mid-30's with a teenage daughter and in a severely rocky marriage. I was told she drafted her will. This is only the beginning..their father also has cancer, bone cancer, a slow form of it. With the insurance only paying so much is there anything anyone can do to help this family. Please!

You or someone close to your friends sister could do a 'fundraiser' to help with their expenses. Some people have benefit suppers, benefit auctions, raffles, or go to a local church to see what benefits they might be willing to do for the family.

She can also contact the American Cancer Society to see if there are any charitable funds available in the area.

She can also try Cancer Care and talk to a social worker to see what can be done to help the family:
