I don't know where you live but you should be able to claim disability pay while you are doing treatment, check with your employer. I was able to work between chemo treatments for a few weeks until I got too run down and then went on dissability. It doesn't pay as much as full salary but it helped get me through.

Or, your local chapter of the American Cancer Society.
They would know how to hook you up with the right resources.
