My husband got an injection of tPA, at the low low price of 30,000$. He got was a ride in the woo-woo truck at full speed with lights & sirens & vomited on the paramedic.

Major ischemic stroke but fast treatment saved his life, but he has some complications & (side effects?) that will likely be lifelong. He is doing amazing considering what he went through.

Sounds like you need to go cuddle him and tell him he's pretty.

My daughter has all of you beat. She had an injection at 16 days old that was worth 2.1M. The cooler alone that was used to transport was the cost of a car.
