Nice guy and fantastic kite boarder -

Not diagnosed until biopsy proven

Best of luck and hope it is not a bad diagnosis.

This is awful to hear - thoughts, prayers and well wishes with him, but I know he must be in good hands and has the will to endure and thrive

I agree. Not sure why pursue it here, unless urgent issues and needs stabilizing.
Stanford and other US hospitals have very high charges, and few have contracts with international travelers insurances - and therefore can charge a bundle.
