Mason was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in September. The surgeon at San Diego University Hospital recommended a craniotomy, and He is scheduled for December. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $4,450, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $3,100 short. my father has been in and out of San Diego University Hospital since September. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without a craniotomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $4,450 is more than we can find. While we wait, Mason struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 7 weeks. During that time Mason won't be able to work a full shift, so the costs keep growing. The money goes straight to the treatment bills, and I'll share the invoices as they're paid so you can see exactly what your gift did. Where the $3,100 goes: • Hospital stay (5 nights): $1,900 • Post-operative medication: $185 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $600 • Travel and lodging for the family: $415 If you're reading this, thank you. - Wayne
