Updates from Micah
Good news. Because of your gifts ($3,752 in total) I made the first payment toward transport to Burnaby Regional Medical Center. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Small update. $3,478 so far, we've booked the dates and paid the deposit.
Thank you all. We're at 25% now ($2,382). I'm honestly stunned. we've booked the dates and paid the deposit.

How is Josephine doing now?
Hang in there. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Nashik
Get well soon. Take care!
what exactly is the $9,350 for?
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. transport to Burnaby Regional Medical Center comes first ($620) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks for asking.
Hope you get there. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Sending love. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Thinking of Burnaby
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Burnaby.
Thank you. If you're in Burnaby I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Happy to explain more.
Hang in there, Micah. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Sukkur but we're thinking of you!

Hope it all works out, Micah. Looking forward to the next update. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
Thinking of you and your family. Looking forward to the next update. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.
