Blue Cross changes insurance rules

Colin Smith had so much pain in his hip that he stopped working as a residential contractor two years ago, soon after he moved to Idaho from California. Smith eventually learned the pain was due to a large tumor in his pelvis. He had multiple myeloma , a type of cancer that forms in plasma cells. The cancer, at one point, progressed into his neck and broke it. Smith, who is 60 and lives in Kuna, first tried two rounds of radiation treatments. When the cancer showed up again, he underwent a stem-cell transplant last August at St. Luke’s Boise Medical Center/ Audrey Dutton , Idaho Statesman. More here .
