Support Ellen Bishop's Brain Surgery & Recovery!

My dear childhood friend Ellen Bishop was diagnosed with an Acoustic Neuroma(tumor) and doctors are concerned it could be a Facial Nerve Neuroma. It has grown rapidly and is starting to paralyze the left side of her face so it has to be removed. This will require brain surgery at Vanderbilt in Nashville which is scheduled for January 24th. She will have a long recovery and needs some things to help with her recovery that her insurance won’t cover. They will have to stay in a hotel a couple nights, gas, food and such. Her husband will have to be out of work a 2 to 3 weeks to help take care of her. She will have out of pocket medical coverage for the hospital stay. If anyone can donate ANY amount it would be greatly appreciated. Every small amount adds up.
