We've decided to cancel our trip to Europe. The new chemo treatments, along with the increase in pain killers, are having more of an effect on me than we expected. I am always tired and unable to think straight which wouldn't make our trip very pleasant. Lois would have to do all of the driving and if things got worse we'd be stuck in a country where we couldn't speak the language.
We were also planning on spending some time with Lois's cousin Peter in Stuttgart, Germany. He just learned that he has prostate cancer and is having surgery to remove his prostate this week.
To top it off, the cost of my most recent prescriptions put me beyond the coverage limit and into the coverage gap (the donut hole). We will have to pay for prescriptions until our out-of-pocket costs reach $4,350. We should be able to get some help from the state. Wisconsin has a program, Senior Care, that should cover some of the costs.
