how do you start a private cancer fund for a person?

Ok I have been diagnosed with bladder cancer and well have no money to receive my treatment. I am forced to consider the options of food and bills for my family or treatment and meds. My wife had an idea to start a facebook page to document my fight and take donations but I have no clue how to go about it. Any information would help at this point. I am scheduled to have surgery to remove my bladder in a few weeks and then start treatment but if I can't find financial funding this would not be able to happen. I have always been a fighter but will not take from my family to fight a disease I may not be able to beat.

Update:

I know about the scams , I have seen them out there. I am just not sure yet what will happen . I just know the 6 day stay and other bills are just the start for me so I am just looking for possibilities before it spins out of control

    I'm not sure but you would have to set it up with the bank to receive the donations and send it directly to the hospital financial office. Too many people are scammers in this world. I do know, however, that a hospital will not turn you away if you have cancer.

    At the time of my diagnosis, my husband had changed jobs so our insurance was ending the day before my surgery. I told my surgeon and he said that was the least of my worries right now...

    Like my dr told me, first things first.. surgery and the bills can be worried over later.

    it is going to not cover all human beings. the only death panels are those at coverage firms which exist already. The coverage substitute is remitted that all human beings purchase coverage so as that expenses would be saved down if the possibility pool contains the two ill and healthful human beings. That coverage threat is minimized. there is not any "certain lifetime complete scientific insurance". That provision has to do without cap on advantages for catastrophic ailment. Dont understand in spite of if it is lifetime or annual. with a view to settle for those with pre-latest circumstances in some years, coverage expenses in all probability will improve, yet it somewhat is extra powerful than no coverage. we don't have those information yet. do not anticipate the sky's the cut back on scientific care. some sections of the recent bill may be repealed.
