Another Possibility

It's amazing the people you meet when you aren't even looking! I met a gentleman at the golf tournament on Sunday, March 29, who has connections with a surgeon in Tijuana, as well as surgical facilities. When I told him about the cost to have the surgery done in Mexicali, he felt that it was unrealistic. I am contacting him to arrange for the medical information/records to be sent to the maxillofacial specialist he knows to see what he can do for me. I told him the budget is tight and that I still have bills in the US that have to be paid from the emergency room visit, so hopefully he will keep that in mind when communicating my needs to the surgeon. I am also petitioning the Flying Samaritans, a group of surgeons from the United States who come to Mexico to perform surgical procedures for underprivileged residents. In lieu of paying for the surgery, I would donate the balance of the savings account to assist in covering costs for their team. I will keep this blog updated as more information become available.
