Stage 3 esophageal cancer is what my mother has been diagnosed with. Her esophagus is closed off. She brings up blood 24/7. Is anemic, so weak. Her dr has seen her once. We took her to ER to demand a feeding tube. I feel huntsman would be better.

What if her medicaire doesn't cover it. What would the expense be? We are trying to see, but believe it's not in our network. This is so tough.
