I need to start this off by saying Thank you to everyone who has supported me on this journey the past five years- what a testament to the impact of human kindness that comes directly from communal willpower.

Your intrepid willingness to give has been honest, incredible, and humbling. Many of you have health issues or other troubles of your own. This humility outstretches from all of you. I wish there was a way that I could give you all 100x what you have given me, because I wouldn't be where I am today without your support. Maybe not here at all. Rides, dog walks, gardening, and your hard earned dollars. I'm beyond blessed

Update: I thankfully do not have any active tumors as the moment I am writing this, yet there are still serious concerns that I have to consider. The main concern is my right leg (Femur) which has been severely damaged. I also have a condition called Myoclonus, which causes an ataxia-like shake when I try to walk. I currently use a chair, or walker to get around, but the next several months will require every bit of my energy to pull this feat off.. I'm in aquatic therapy and rehabilitation, doing PT, and will need a few more procedures and surgery to get through this next 6-9 month hurdle.

The future is unknown again.

Another ancillary battle might be against my own insurance company. Which seems to enjoy cutting me off; refusing to take care for tests like bloodwork, x-rays or MRi's.. This is also a full time job that is filled by navigating the endless paperwork, insurance (plus their automated agents) and debt collectors, among other things. This is a fight that brings maybe the most pain some days.

I am currently using a lawyer to work on some social security issues to hopefully get back on, however they said the case can take upwards of a year or longer. Income has come few and far between. I am still working on trying to finding new ways besides begging to make income-as this GFE kicks my pride in the shins on it's own. It is time to put that aside and ask for a little help :)

I am always grateful to everyone who has donated in the past or lent their words, prayers, and time. I believe in the great power of my community.

With sincerity and Love,

Zac.
