Battling and Beating Cancer -- Coping With Legal & Financial Issues Presented By Cancer

Coping With Legal & Financial Issues Presented By Cancer: Sometimes cancer seems to be the unwanted gift that keeps on giving. A cancer diagnosis does not just raise a host of health, medical, and mortality issues – it often presents a panoply of legal and financial issues. Joining Charlene and Scott on this episode of “Battling and Beating Cancer” is Monica Fawzy, Esq. Monica is the Chicago-based attorney at the Cancer Legal Resource Center. We discuss topics such as health and disability insurance, employment issues, access to health care and government, estate planning, and resources available to people battling cancer. Monica will participate in a conference on June 18, 2010 at Loyola University of Chicago School of Law in Chicago so this is a great time to welcome her to "Battling and Beating Cancer."
