    Just sent some money your way my friend. Thank you for taking the effort in asking for help. I know it isn’t easy, but I think many of us appreciate the opportunity to help any way we can. Your positivity and love for reading is very inspirational… now go beat the hell out of that cancer!!

      Thanks, Jim. I'm hoping to be able to post videos more consistently moving forward, but it's tough. I'd rather not post a video at all than post one when I have the personality of a soggy piece of toast, which happens more often than you might think.

    Randy, as a fellow traveler also with multiple myeloma, I have some idea what you're going through. Treatment is incredibly expensive. I'm blessed my wife has good health insurance (for the time being). We were both in agreement that we wanted to make a donation and hope it helps, financially but also to let you know you are well thought of. We're rooting for you (& me). Stay positive (& sexy!). Warm regards, Ken & Melissa Yott.❤

      Omg, it is so comforting just to know someone else has gone through this so hugely helpful. I have health insurance through the market place, but I'm so grateful to even have that available to me. Thank you again, so much!

      @@LiterateTexan I’m so glad it helps, Randy. I’m just returning the favor because your videos have helped me (especially when I’m not feeling great). Yes, they are informative & entertaining, but they are comforting to me in a way I cannot easily explain. It may be your warm, engaging personality (that and you remind of my eldest brother) and you share your name with another brother (LOL). Or it might be because you feel like a friend.
      P.S. That Dexamethasome is something, isn’t it? 😂

      @LiterateTexan  5 місяців тому +1

      @kenyotta67 The Dexamethasone is crazy. It makes me really emotional. I spent a couple of hours crying this afternoon because I hurt a friend's feelings last week. This whole experience has been unlike anything else I've experienced in my life. Your kind words have made this entire week so much better already.

    You've really been through the wringer! Thanks for telling us your situation. I didn't hear about the earlier GoFundMe... but I'm happy to donate and so grateful your doctor believes you're going to recover. I used to do the same kind of business, by the way.

    I hope you are feeling well. I haven't given before but will do now. The reason I avoided the video before is that I get annoyed with Gofundme's. So many Americans are making fun and telling incorrect horror stories about European healthcare systems. And esp. about the Dutch system because of euthanasia without looking at what it really is. But when Americans get sick they do ask for our money. I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings with this. I just hope that Americans reading this and giving money to Gofundsme's will think about way's to make them obsolete. Or at least thing again before they trash on someone else's ways of living.
