Hi Lilly,
I think there are people trying to get a lower price for the transplant. I believe Lina will have the surgery in Chicago.
Yeah 10% isn't much. But the family has so much hope. They were talking about the future and they were including Lina in it.

: Thank you for that! It's both shocking & understandable that her parents wouldn't tell her that she has cancer... 10% chance of survival... Jesus...
: There is a way to haggle with doctors, you know - get a lower price for service. Has this been done yet? This must be hard for her mother to do, since she doesn't speak English so well. & then again, I believe she's getting her surgery done in Canada, right? Or is that just where the bank is that has her account?
