Bob Dillingham is a 31 year old glassblower from Las Vegas, NV., recovering from surgery for a brain tumor he had removed on Oct. 16, 2014.

In July 2014 Bob was diagnosed with a brain tumor called Cystc hemangioblastomas. The tumor was the size of a golf ball and attached to his Medulla Oblongata. The tumor so aggressive that his doctor in Las Vegas did not want to remove it. While awaiting for approval to go to UCLA Medical Center to have the tumor removed, he had to have a shunt placed in his head. This was to help relieve pressure to his brain from water fluid that was building up. On the evening of Oct. 1, 2014 Bob was transported by ambulance to UCLA Medical Center. Because of complications from the water build up on his brain Bob had at least 6 surgeries just trying to keep him alive. There was a point were the doctors told us it was so bad that they did not think they could even do it. Finally on Oct 16, 2014 Bob under went a 13 hour surgery to remove the tumor. During surgery he lost 5 liters of blood. Dr. Martin said that they removed all of the tumor but could not tell us is there was any neurological damage. They said that the area where they had removed the tumor was swollen and was pushing against the nerve that wakes us up. When the swelling goes down he should regain consciousness It was 3 weeks after his surgery and he still was not waking up. Only slight eye, leg and feet movement. About that time Dr. Martin came in and said that Bobs MRI showed that the swelling was going down and they see damage to the area where the tumor was. They said they could not guarantee us that Bob would get better. We are going to do all it takes to make Bob better!!

We are still accepting donations for because there are far more expenses than just medical bills!!! The funds are not only for medical bills but to get a family back on there feet from all the out of pocket expenses we have accumulated like Bobs mom leaving home for 2 years. Giving up all jobs that supported her, All living expenses while staying at Bobs side everyday. Gas, Food, lodging etc. We used up savings, sold almost all belongings, couldn't pay bills because everything went to the care of Bob. We are continuing to accept donations until we can get back on track after that all money raised will go to another family in need! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

So we got here a little before 9:00 am. Bob's heart rate is up about 110 to 116. We don't think it's from his infection. This place does not have pads to put under him so they put a diaper on him. Something we fight against because it causes infections!! When we got here this morning his catheter bag was empty and he smelled like urine. When we ask the nurse if she could flush it out to make are its working? She said she has to get orders to do that. It is 10:30 and we are still waiting. Bob is laying on the hardest bed ever, They don't seem to even care about his bedsores. We don't think they even moved him during the night. Have know idea what his temp or blood pressure is. What a fu***ng nightmare!!! 😡😡
