Trying To Get Mm Card To Use For Son With Cancer

[kppy123]

Hi,

I'm looking for advice on getting a MM card to help my almost 17 yr old with cancer.  I have loads of documentable evidence to support his dx. He's had 2 more reoccurances (in the lungs) and it's looking hopeless to cure him with the standard protocol of chemo/surgery.  I've called a couple places who say they don't "do" minors.  I'm desparate to get this going but I don't know what else to do. Can anyone point me in the right direction please?  We live near Ann Arbor, if that helps.

Thanks

My policy on minors is that the primary has to sign and I sign free.  Need medical records of course.  My closest offices are Saginaw and Lansing.  Would be happy to help you.

Thank you Dr. Bob.  His "normal" primary is a pediatrician that I don't think will sign.  The primary for his osteosarcoma is (obviously) an oncologist that  I'm pretty certain will not but I plan to speak to both docs and plead my case.

 

He has surgery (thoracotomy- his second) tomorrow so my question is does he need to be at the appointment with you?

Thanks again,

As soon as one of his docs signs off on the treatment.
