        Hi Esther,

        Thank you for posting your reply to the author.  I read this article the other day and was disheartened by the tone it took.  Without hope, what do we have?  As always, your reply was right on the mark.  Thank you.

        Would love to know, if the author replies to you.

        Hugs,

                    No need to quote what I said and use it on your post if you disagree with my statement. Then you bold your statement in a way to totally discount what I said.  You seem angry at what I said.  Just say you disagree in a supportive way.  

                    Many insurance companies in the US have separate major medical and hospitalization coverage.  Different doctors you see will bill separately and this increases the cost.

                    Simon, I'm glad you will receive treatment locally, it will be a lot less stressful than having to travel to the US.  Keep us posted on your treatment.

                          Hi Simon,

                          When I inquired 6 1/2 years ago, just the surgery itself was $25,000.  This did not take in to account the cost of the pre-surgical testing, hospital stay(1 night), anesthesiologist, nursing care, etc.  I would think it would be upwards of $100,000.

                                Hi Simon,

                                I'm not sure why your doctor is not listed? Don't know how the list on this site was compiled, but will look into it.

                                See you on FB.
