All I want to do is help and I have tried finding work, but this did not work.

I don't expect much to come from this, but figured I have nothing to lose posting this here. Sorry for bothering you all with this. I'm just very stressed out. I have already tried the people on my facebook via private msgs since I did not want to put this on my facebook page, but that didn't help and I can understand why. So many of us are going through hard times.
I've been helping the best I could with the low amount of $ I have\make, but this is not even coming close to actually helping. We have looked into many things locally, but so far nothing has helped very much. Anyway, I won't keep babbling on an on. You can go to http://www.gofundme.com and read a little more.
Again, I'm sorry for bothering you guys. |
My wifey and I wanna send you a little bit this weekend. We don't have much while going through her own post-cancer treatments and just finding out she needs more surgery for prevention, but I'll see what we can do since we totally get your frustration and kind of feel your pain, man. Cancer turns everything upside down... everything... money won't help her situation but at least it can make her remaining days and YOUR remaining days with her at your side a bit better, even if its a few bux for treats you can both enjoy.
I had noticed that success of gofundmes are a tough go. We did well around 2500 + private donations but it takes time. Give it time.. many people only donate later whilst they cannot when you first show it to them.
You should put up a photo of you both, makes it more personal and even strangers stumbling on your fund page will help. People want to connect with the people needing the assistance.
There's nothing I can say to make anything better, but we're thinking of you both here man. My heart breaks.... Hang in there Yngwie
