FOX 4: Helping to cover the cost of breast cancer
It’s that unforgettable visit to the doctor’s office.
“You have cancer.”
For so many, the next concern becomes the cost of treatment.
Partners for Breast Cancer Care tells FOX 4 that the average round of chemotherapy can cost around $9,500 per treatment.
That’s why the organization steps up and steps in to help provide care.
“My world stopped for a moment, and my daughter came to my mind.”
Marlena Cormier is a client of the organization. She remembers the day her doctor diagnosed with her breast cancer.
“In my brain…this could never happen to me. I was invincible.”
She recently started her fight with the disease after being diagnosed in May of this year.
Cormier says it wasn’t just her health that had her worried – it was the cost.
“I had no medical insurance.”
That’s where Partners for Breast Cancer Cancer stepped in to help.
FOX 4 sat down with representatives of the organization.
