Chris is asking for help to get a jump start.

Time is running out for me to make arrangements. This is 5 years in the making. 2019 I started my doctorate. Many obstacles but through a promise to mom the night before she passed I told her I’d complete this. May 17 I would like to attend graduation but after losing my main job last January and other financial burdens I cannot afford to do this on my own. I am asking friends and family to support me. I have never been married, no children and thus, never asked for contributions for life’s milestones. I am now asking for your generosity. Help me walk across the stage to honor Mom. With all the issues, Doug being in the nursing home and financial burdens this reality is dwindling.
