Glad I live in Canada where my Cancer treatment was free. (Except for hospital parking pass)

It would probably be cheaper for me to drive up to White Rock or Abbotsford BC then go see a doctor in Seattle even with my insurance. But when you get sick it's kind of hard to shop around.

No, mine was before MAID came in to effect I think, and not terminal if they cured it. I do know someone who had terminal situation and they took the MAID option to avoid 6 weeks of pain and degradation
