I have a dear friend, he is one of my cycling friends. We haven't seen him on rides for a while, he said it was too cold to ride. Turns out he has a mass in his thigh, sarcoma, lung cancer, prostrate problems, maybe cancer there too.

He has no medical insurance, so getting tests run and treatment is a red tape nightmare.

I've offered him help, meals, driving him around whatever I can and my family can do for him. So have many of my biking family. We are all here for him.

My question: How could a group like Livestrong help him? What we are needing is someone or some entity to help get him treatment. To date no treatment, just lots of tests but no one (at the hosipital) together to organize his treatment in the right order or give him treatment.

Frustrating.
