Way to go on trying to find a solution!

I think it might help if you focus on her mind and soul for a while. I know I have had many times when I feel the focus has been on my broken body that has betrayed DH and me. I don't feel valued for my mind and spirit, I have just felt broken and need to be cast aside. Maybe just take a break from focusing on improving, it implies that one isn't at a satisfactory level, does that make sense? Let her take the lead on how and when she takes steps to help her situation change, just be her smiling support.

Carrieberry & Brandyberry both mentioned some options... planned parenthood/community clinic, and Rx aren't necessarily budget breakers. Also, many doctors have affordable prices for folks without insurance, it might be worth a call to their office to ask about $$. When I didn't have insurance, I found that if the office had *women's clinic* in the title they were much much more reasonable and accomodating with the financial side of getting health care, but that doesn't mean that other doctors won't be as well.

It's probably frustrating to not be able to *fix* the situation, but perhaps it doesn't need *fixing*, just understanding and patience
