Help Him Communicate Again: Support His Recovery

After a series of strokes, they found dead brain tissue in the region of the brain that causes dementia and also found a brain tumor in the left frontal lobe. His fight is long and great, with a sense of faith that he truly believes he will be able to continue his work serving others.

This fundraiser will help for one surgery and initially what's most important is a laptop and software program that will help him to communicate as he is working diligently at being able to speak, spell, punctuate once again in a way that we might all consider to be normal. As many know, he has spent many, many years working with us with addiction and ran his own company at the same time. He has shown great success that he only believes was a gift so that he could help others.

If just each of you are compelled to contribute any amount towards this, then the goal can easily be met. It doesn't take one or two people to contribute the entire amount; it only takes a small amount from each of you that he still loves and cares about, that he worries about, and wants all of you to have the very best lives. There are countless stories of him helping others become citizens, helping young people survive addiction, and becoming successful members of society.

Please find it in your heart to do what you can to help. Share with your family and friends what a wonderful man he is and all the successes of helping others he has had, knowing he struggles hard beyond what any of us probably have. Having tested the software with him, it works incredibly; it takes frustration away, which helps his strength for recovery.

Think about the outcome, think about being even a small part of his life's journey, knowing the blessings that he receives he truly receives and believes you all will receive. Even sharing his story and getting it out there can bless so many as well, and if that's what you're able to do, his gratitude for even that is immense.

Here is a loving, kind gentleman, one who loves to protect his friends, one that teaches by example, does the action rather than all the words. Let's make this happen; let's show this world that we can help a very special person gain some semblance of control with his communication skills and watch him continue to pass it forward. Whether you believe in God or higher positive energy, as he would put it, or even just karma, he knows each and every one of you have love in your heart and soul.

This is going to be shared with very specific people he feels prompted to have it done this way. He would say in his simplest terms that he loves you all, that he has loved you since you all first met, and he does so completely and unconditionally. Thank you for reading this and taking the time. Let this, or may this, touch the very love and kindness inside of each and every one of you.

To have friends in different places in this country and around the world, and friends from back when he was a teenager to those who met him in his 20s, you all know he is so unconditional. Let's show him the same; let's give him the opportunity, the chance that he needs. Thank you.
