Aaron’s Surgery

Hello everyone. My family has been struggling with some news. My husband Aaron has recently found out he has a cyst in his head that needs to be removed. Over the past couple of years, the hearing on his right side has faded out completely. Two failed hearing tests led to an MRI as well as a CT scan to discover the growth. The doctors determined that further growth of the mass could lead to more damage to nearby nerves that control facial muscles, as well as causing other serious complications. The surgeon will be able to drain the majority of the fluid inside the cyst. He will then have to take an abdominal fat graft and place it at the drain site. He is hopeful that scar tissue will prevent any further leaking or growth. The procedure will be approximately four hours long. Aaron will need to stay in the hospital for at least two days for post-surgery monitoring. The recovery time at home will be roughly four to six weeks if everything goes as planned. During this time at home Aaron will not be able to do much physical activity, being restricted to lifting no more than fifteen pounds. Because of this, he will not be able to return to work. He gets up every single morning and works harder than anyone I know. Not being able to do what he does best will bring him down. Our family has always been able to count on him to take care of us every single day. Now we need to be there for him. I would like to be able to raise enough money to help get us to Denver for the surgery as well as any follow-up appointments later down the road to recovery. The money raised will also go towards any costs not covered by insurance. Finally use some money towards bills to give my husband some peace of mind knowing he doesn't have to rush his recovery to get back to work before he's ready. We are truly humbled to be in this position. We are genuinely appreciative of any donations you can make. And if you can't make a donation that is ok. You can still help out by giving this a share. Thank you, everyone, for your love, prayers and support.
