Hi everyone let me tell you a little story about myself, My name is Ismael I grew up in South Chicago and then I moved to the good old peach state Georgia. Recently in March of 2024 I’ve turned 21 and during that month my mom noticed a size difference of my legs. My left leg was bigger than the other So the day after my birthday I went to the hospital to see what’s wrong? Turns out that I have a bone mass on my left leg. I went to the orthopedic the next week and they told me I have a osteochondroma which basically is a second bone growing out from the main bone which is basically a tumor. They also told me that this mass is bigger than normal cases. So my case turned into a rare case. So they sent my information to a specialist and that took a couple weeks. But during those weeks of waiting I started feeling pain from my leg started to slow down at work but push through the pain. The pain only happens when I stand and walk for long periods of time. I would limp when I walk and there were some nights that I would catch a cramp in the middle of the night with severe pain that I had to bite down on something to feel some relief. Now the time came to finally meet with the specialist in Florida and they asked if I wanted the mass removed from my leg and I said yes. I didn’t want to live with this pain the rest of my life. I’m supposed to be helping my parents at this age to enjoy life spend time as family. So the money will be going towards my surgery medical bill.
