David and I have come to a dead stop over the last couple of days. We have received 0.00 in donations over the last few days, while the situation has become increasingly critical - and not just for me. I am not only worried about myself at this point, but also of David. He is disabled and I am afraid is is doing too much with his own money in his efforts to get me back home.
I am not interested in 'making money' and I don't want 'free' money - I need to go home. I woke up this morning in unbelievable pain, and all I can do for treatment is go to the ER to get pain medication. Pain medication will make me non-functional, and the underlying problem will still be there. As far as band-aids go, that is one I would prefer to avoid.
If you want to donate but you are not sure we are legit, I encourage you to contact me so you can talk to me (or David) directly. We can also work out a way to do in-kind donations, too. (Such as paying for another week in the motel which CAN be done over the phone).
I was just contacted by an agency (this one out of Trenton N.J.) who is interested in my case, so there is help out there - but it's NOT available here. Our fundraising goal is somewhere around 350-400.00. That would cover shipping expenses, cab and cell-phone, my last week of rent here and the luggage. I will post the progress of our fundraising here for all to see!
