A Massive Thank You for Your Help! [View all]

As I physically paid my June rent and other bills today, I wanted to reach out and thank all of you for your amazing support and help with My GoFundMe Fundraiser.

Your generosity has helped me stay under my rented roof with heat/air, gas, and water. Your generosity has helped me get to the Doctor, have a cup of coffee every morning, feed my cats, do my laundry, keep connected to the internet, and now for the best parts:
Your generosity has kept desperation at bay, kept my anxiety to a minimum, has allowed me to sit in my $10 Rise up and down recliner and pay attention to the kitty on my lap feeling such love and grace instead of despondence.
Your generosity has allowed me to read your wisdom, to accept your love, to greet you every morning with hope and love, and to embrace this literal life you've given me that without you, would have rendered me a meaningless statistic in a paupers grave.
To put it simply, I am so grateful because you have given me a reason to wake up every morning, and to try to embrace the rest of each day with the hope and promise it offers.
I'm overwhelmed with feelings of love and gratitude all you continue to do to help me.

Thank you!
Love, John Mckusick
