Dear Eric: This is in reference to “Growing Tired”. The letter writer’s cousin has cancer, and the chemo gives her terrible side effects. The cousin refuses to sell her home to pay for more care and the letter writer doesn’t know what to do.
It sounds like the ill cousin may be eligible for Visiting Nurse Assistant (VNA) services which are often covered by Medicare. If she’s as sick as the letter indicates, she may ultimately need hospice care, which is also provided by the VNA, and it would be a good idea to get her on service for an easier transition down the line.
