In case there were still any doubts as to where the money is going, ladies and gentleman, I present to you the hospital bill from my first surgery that just arrived tonight. This also does not include the $4,025 bill I already paid that was strictly the doctor’s bill for it.

Now, this isn’t the final price. Well maybe it is, but I might be able to deduct a little bit from it. See that 30 dollar deduction? That’s all I got from the “insurance” California has given me… But I got larger discounts on my emergency bills last month for being self-pay [I didn’t have that coverage yet]. Sooo I’m going to be calling them tomorrow and see if I can work something out, try to wipe away the shitty local thing and see what kind of discount I can get for self-pay. It won’t be a HUGE discount either way, but if I can get them to do that, it’ll be better than 30 dollars. I am going to stress this because I still have those emergency bills sitting here, as well as the future bills of the injections and there are still plans for a second surgery, so yeah…

Guys. Guys look at that RIDICULOUS number. That’s an impossible number. There is literally no way I could’ve gotten this surgery if it weren’t for you guys. I will never forget this, I will never stop being grateful, and I will never be able to thank you all enough. You all came through for me when nothing else could. You reached your hands out to me in my darkest hour and pulled me out. And I just… Man, you guys… I love you all so freaking much. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
