Brain Tumor Healing
šØ Urgent: Help Nicolas Woods Recover from Life-Saving Brain Surgery
Dear Friends, Family, and Compassionate Strangers,
My name isĀ Nicolas Woods, and Iām sharing my story with a mix of gratitude and vulnerability. I never imagined Iād be fighting for my lifeābut here I am, recovering from aĀ 12-hour craniotomyĀ to remove aĀ large frontal lobe meningiomaĀ that invaded my skull and brain.
𩺠My Medical Journey: A Fight Against the Odds
Right before the New Year 2025, I underwentĀ high-risk brain surgeryĀ at Mission Hospital. The tumor was aggressiveāpressing against critical structures, causing seizures, and even invading myĀ superior sagittal sinusĀ (a major blood vessel). The surgical team had toĀ clip and remove part of the sinus, drill out infected bone, and reconstruct my skull. Miraculously, I survived.
But recovery? ItāsĀ brutal.
- Physically: Relearning balance, speech, and basic motor skills.
- Emotionally: Facing PTSD from the trauma of surgery.
- Financially: Drowning in bills despite insurance.
šø The Harsh Reality: Why I Need Your Help
Iāve dedicated my life to hard work, but now my normal routines are somewhat limited in the short term. The costs areĀ crippling:
ā Ā $50,000 GoalĀ Covers:
- Uninsured medical billsĀ (surgery, ICU, scans)
- Rehab & physical therapyĀ (critical for regaining independence)
- Medications & home careĀ (anti-seizure drugs, ongoing therapy)
- Living expensesĀ (rent, utilitiesāI haveĀ minimal incomeĀ right now)

Nicolas Woods
