    Friend recently diagnosed w stage 3 , depth is 2.1.   Thankfully PET scan and Ct came back negative earlier this week. Friend is self employed mother w NO INsurance!!

    know they are million factors – but trying to get even very rough range of potential surgery costs to remove. 8k?, 40k…?   

     

    Fundraising efforts underway but would be helpful to get even generalized idea of what surgery alone will be. And no one will prove.  Again- know million factors…but any guess even is appreciated. Thanks.
