ULPT Request: I have incurable cancer, how do I milk it

I have a cancer similar to leukemia that can’t be “cured”. I’m 29F, not married, no kids, have an office job that doesn’t pay great but allows me to go to doctor appointments and has good health insurance.

Because the cancer has no end-date, either in death or with a chance of being cured, applying for short-term (or long-term) disability is not viable. People with this cancer usually live a median of 3-5 years but because I’m young, that timeline is lengthened.

I pay mortgage in a HCOL area, have $20,000 in credit card debt, and have $15,000 in student loans with some medical bills in collections.

How can I make life easier, at least financially, by having cancer?
