Sending good thoughts, Janet. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out.
I hope things turn around soon. My neighbor in Cairo donated after I showed her your page. Love from Cairo.
So sorry you're going through this. It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Riverside.
Sending strength. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Khon Kaen.
Hope things get better soon, Janet. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Houston but we're thinking of you. God bless
