This is just an FYI for those of you who are unaware of this program. I do not have ALS, but my dad does, and I myself am disability and know first hand the mounting costs of RX plans and the damn doughnut hole. There is help for people who do qualify and this government website explains how you can get more help. It doesn't even count your home or other things that you would think that would knock you out of the running. It worth a look at. www/ssa.gov/pubs/10509.htm. I hope this helps some of you!
Hugs,
Blubear
