How long is COBRA good for?

I have a consultation scheduled for September 22, 2003 and I have BCBS/PPO of Illinois, but I am currently hearing through the grapevine that there will be lay-offs at my job, my question is if that should happen, can I continue my benefits and if so how long? Because I probably could get a public aid card, but I was informed that my wait would be even longer, because of the high demand for the procedure. Any input, PLEASE?
