Mediciad is the only program of that type when there are no other options. Some states such as Mississippi are closing down Medicaid (nearly 70,000 dumped from the rolls so far) and others have similar plans. The only other option might be to try the patient assistance program of each drug company for all of the drugs being taken. Most drug companies have a program similar to that for Gleevec. That might be time consuming but if accepted would provide a way to obtain the prescriptions.   Rob     --- In [EMAIL PROTECTED], "kelgolden" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]...> wrote: > As many of you know Danny had a stem cell transplant in April.
