[Note: I just took a few days off line so (as usual) I’m late to the party. Regardless, it’s a good thing to help when one can.]
A longtime reader clued me in to a friend of Stilton’s Place in need of help. Here’s the deal:
Those of you who’ve been here since the Hope n’ Change days will likely remember frequent commenter Jim Hlavac. He’s in a pretty tough situation just now with life-threatening illness and can use our help.
He needs to fly back to the United States from Mazatlan (it’s a long but interesting story) to get medical care, and a very modest ($1000 total) Gofundme page has been set up to assist in covering his travel costs. Even small donations will make a difference and be much appreciated!
You can read about it here and the go fund me is here. I’m sure every dollar will help. Thanks.
I’d like to thank “leaperman” for bringing it to my attention. We’ve all had rough patches and it’s nice to lend a hand when you can. Also every time I see a small charitable effort of people voluntarily helping those in need I gain a little faith in humanity. Especially the voluntary part. No government mandated bullshit here… just people helping people. (I know gofundme takes a fee but that’s understandable to make the wheels go round.)
If you can toss a haypenny in the virtual tin can, please do. If you can’t spare to help, don’t sweat it, likely your time will come.
Thanks. Y’all.
