The CBS8 story was great and we are thrilled to be here, but it has come at an astounding financial toll, to the point that we have tough decisions to make, and very likely selling the house Layla grew up in is the next move. We created a gofundme to capture support from the CBS story but have been encouraged to be open to the fact that we are staring down the barrel of this. We would welcome your support as unfortunately, this human world is all about money, sadly. The world shouldn’t be this way, but it is. You shouldn’t have to give up every damn aspect of your life to care for these kids, but I did.
I have done nothing but focus on Layla for the last 18-19 months and I will continue to do nothing but. I would not change a damn thing because if I did, she’d be dead. Let me say that again, Layla would be dead and it is painfully obvious. If we end up having to sell the house, as early as March, you all know me, we will just do it. But even that will be a distraction and I wonder as well as fear what that would do to her. If you’d like to once again contribute to Layla’s care, and that is 100% what it directly goes to, we would be again forever grateful. Many more details are at her new gofundme page, address noted on the bottom of the attached flyer as well as in comments below.
Oh, and today is the 1-year anniversary of her leaving the hospital, discharged, and we have kept her out ever since, sleeping where she should be, in her cozy bed and not in some damn hospital. Let me put it another way. She was given 3-6 months to live and for 12-months, 365-days, she didn’t even spend a night in any damn hospital anywhere. And that 3-6 months, well that was 18 months and 7-days ago.
This generic cancer fusion she has is the school yard bully. It’s the biggest kid on the school yard. He’s never been in a fight in his entire life until now because Layla just kicked him in the balls.
It is time to finish the job.
