Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Thinking of Newcastle upon Tyne.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in San Fernando donated after I showed her your page. Love from San Fernando.
Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Best of luck, Usha. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.
