I Am Healed,
I'm so sorry you are dealing with all of this at such a young age. I'm glad they caught it early for you. Are you under the age of 26? Is your dad still alive? If so, can you go on his insurance? If not, check out the ACA to see if you qualify for enrollment.
Here are some other organizations you may want to contact to see if you can get some advice or assistance.
