Silent auction for my husbands surgery

4/9/2013

My husband Tyler has a tumor, here is the information he wrote about it:

On April 17th I will have  surgery done to remove a  large tumor in my head known as a vestibular
schwannoma or in a previous post  called an acoustic neuroma (99% benign).  The surgery will last around 5 hours if all goes well, and the hospital stay will be close to 5 days. During
the surgery they will be severing the  vestibular nerve that the tumor is
wrapped around.Because of the severance  I will lose  complete hearing in my right ear and the balance center on my right  side will no  longer work.Recovery time
will be 6 to  8 weeks during which I will be relearning to balance myself using
only my left  side balance center.  Recently
I went in for a routine hearing test, and  it was recommended that a MRI be
performed to rule out the type of tumor that  the MRI confirmed.The
surgery itself  will cost close to $80,000. Thank goodness we have insurance,
but we still do  not know what our out of pocket expenses will be. Because of the costs associated with the 
 procedure my wife has been painting like a mad woman, and will be having a 
 silent auction to raise money to help pay for the hospital bills. If you would like to purchase a painting prior to the event feel free. http://sheriwiseman.etsy.com  We have also set up a link to a PayPal™ account in my wife’s blog http://www.sheriwiseman.blogspot.com where people can donate if they wish. Thank you  all for you love and
support. (The donation link is on  the  right hand side of the screen.  If you are using your cell phone you need
