DONNA: When I was first diagnosed with breast cancer, being a single mom my greatest fear was how am I gonna afford this? How am I gonna take care of my kids? The treatment I needed cost thousands of dollars every month. Then Emily Cain made insurance companies cover oral chemotherapy just like other cancer treatments. That meant I could get treatment, keep working, and not go bankrupt. Emily Cain saw a problem and cared enough to fix it. Her bill helped save my life.

CAIN: I'm Emily Cain and I approve this message, because Maine deserves better.
