I am delighted to be able to let you know that RT Cunningham of Untwisted Vortex has received USD $3,004.00 in donations to help him out during his wife’s upcoming operation. He has posted about it – The Circle of Life.
I am so heartened to learn that blog readers have rallied round, not only to publicize Richard’s plight but also to give hard cash to help him out. Richard removed the button once he felt he had enough funds to see him through the next couple of months of air fares and medical bills. I commend him for his honesty.
I was pleased to see Darren Rowse who can reach so many people with his blog, posting about Richard’s challenges. Well done Darren.
That’s terrific! His story touched me. I really wanted to help, but didn’t have the means to.
