Thinking of you, Brandon. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of London.
Hang in there. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Greetings from Cairo
Stay strong, Brandon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 22 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Wishing you the best, Brandon. Shared it with a few friends.
So sorry you're going through this, Brandon. Wishing Crystal a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Love from Lagos.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Crystal!
Sure. The biggest one is post-operative medication, $320. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one.
Sending love. I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from London
