I will be quick if I have the $4K to pay for it, otherwise it will be a 3 to 4 month wait, but by that time, the infection could spread to my other ear and if these new antibiotics don't take control; as a final resort as having to wait for so long, it is only 50% chance that the operation will be successful - unless I have it now, I'll be the new Beethoven for the 21st Century, never get to perform or hear my music again. Until then - if I can't play the piano anymore to an audience, my Soul bleeds a thousand tears and I fear for my life. To change that, I can only offer 1 song if anyone was going to that change humanity : Otherwise, I'm going through the turmoil of never being able to hear music again.
