Posted by: " Terry Dailey " terrydailey@... terry_dailey40 Fri Aug 10, 2007 6:41 am (PST) Well just when I was getting very down on things. My former employer had canceled my insurance so I was stuck without rx coverage, and I did not know how I would get my gleevec. Well the social worker at my onco sent in a request to the manufacturer and they gave me the Gleevec for free until I can get into a medicare rx program. Which will not be until toward the end of the year during open enrollment. The great thing is even though I had to jump through more hoops than a circus clown I got my Gleevec yesterday. So it makes me feel better about the RX companies, at least they have a heart of sorts and will not just let someone kick the bucket because they cannot afford the medication they need to stay alive.
