Eventually, Jerry confided in the station manager, who suggested that she email the doctor in charge of Antarctic Medical Stations, Dr. Gerald Katz.

Jerry questioned if it was worth the risk for everyone involved, worried that even if she did get the supplies, her chance of survival would be low if she wasn't able to remove the lump in its entirety.
