    I’m sorry to hear about the issues you’re facing. It can’t be easy to deal with these financial worries in addition to the cancer, I’m sure.
    Hopefully others who have gone through a similar experience will be along shortly to offer advice and support but in the meantime you might consider reaching out to Macmillan, as they have specialist financial advisers you can discuss this with.
    With best wishes,
