Treatment Supports

Hi all, I am Mishu, currently I am in Australia on family stream visitor visa, I have 9 months old son who is an Austrian citizen by decent, Recently I have been diagonised as Infiltrating ductal carcinoma(NST), Bloom -Richardson nuclear grade-2

I am very helpless now, I want get treatment ASAP. As I don't have medicare and my private health insurance will not cover cancer treatment cost because of pre-existing condition(waiting time 12 months), my husband is an Australian citizen , we don't have that much cash to bear all costs associated with this treatment .we are living in Sydney .

Can anyone plesae tell us how we will get treatment with any financial assistance .

Thanks in advance

Regards

Mishu
