A Burbank mom battling cancer discusses getting life-saving care denied by her insurance company.

. Unfortunately, her health insurance, Anthem Blue Cross, is denying the life-saving surgery Rokhsan needs.

The surgery is needed to remove tumors from Rokhsan's liver and colon. Twenty rounds of chemotherapy were needed to prepare for the surgery. Rokhsan's oncologist, Dr. Yuman Fong of City of Hope, wrote a letter to Anthem Blue Cross stating that the surgery Rokhsan needs has proven successful for three decades. When asked about Anthem Blue Cross's decision, Rokhsan expressed her frustration and disappointment. She labeled their actions "pathetic" and said they have no right to determine the fate of patients like her.

Isabel emphasizes the need for self-advocacy, encouraging individuals to share their stories to platforms like Instagram, speak out, gather support from doctors, and reach out to influential figures in Washington. Rokhsan is doing just that, fighting for her life. She continues to explain to Anthem Blue Cross the surgery they are denying has proven to add years to a patient's life.
