Hello friends. It is with a great sense of humility I am setting up this account to ask for you possible help.  The need is immediate as I have exhausted all my funds ... and I don't have enough for my rent. As many of you know, I have had health issues for quite some time, at least the past 5 years, leading up to a brain surgery on April 22nd which I will be recovering from for an indefinite amount of time.  The surgery was intended to help manage an inoperable brain tumor, and I will be off work at least 4 - 6 weeks from this procedure.  Unfortunately, they just "found" the tumor in March of this year, but it has been the culprit of my financial woes for over 5 years now. As my health deteriorated, it has been more difficult to find and keep a good paying job. I am Eternally grateful for the provisions which have come my way. My income has gone toward basic living expenses (housing, groceries & auto/fuel, etc.) and medical expenses. The funds raised here will be used for these same basic living expenses. I am seeking your help in getting through the coming months as I determine what my next steps will be, with employment & my finances.  I deeply appreciate your friendship & assistance (for those able to help)  I fully understand if you can't and still value your prayers and friendship!! PLEASE DO NOT feel pressured in any way to help. If you are able, well, I will be deeply indebted  :-) Thank you, Ted Welty & family
