David's biopsy is scheduled for Feb. 2. The family still has to help pay for the anesthesiologist and other hospital fees, but the $40,000 in private donations they've received since the case caught the public's attention earlier this month will be sufficient, Dingman-Grover said.

Hopefully the public attention will focus on other aspects of this.... why on earth isn't this paid for by the state?

This family obviously works...does not have enough insurance and they are known here as the 'working poor' As far as I'm concerned our health sdystem here in the US where I live, is similar to a 3rd world country. Our insurance companies make millions along with the drug companies.
