We get by with a little help from our friends

Surprise (probably not) your translucent friend has melanoma skin cancer. This is me asking for help buying some time to get healthy, by that I mean taking more time off work, keeping my business afloat, and basically creating a buffer while I deal with getting rid of the melanoma. I cannot express my gratitude enough to those of you who've offered to help and I appreciate the encouragement to ask for help, without which I would never have the guts to do. This is the most vulnerable I've ever felt and also the most held by my community--it's a trip but I'm here for it and deeply appreciative. Thank you, friends.
