Addicted to ArboristSite
My brother in South Carolina recently had a massive stroke that left him mostly paralyzed on the right side. He's the sole provider for his family. In addition, because of the economic downturn, his daughter and son-in-law (both good kids) had been depending on him for help until things get better.
He is going through physical therapy at the moment, but the prospects of his returning to his old job are slim. He will be eligible for a disability pension from his employer, but that won't kick in for 6 months.
I've talked to him on the phone and, although his speech is slurred, I can tell he's keeping his spirits up. My brother, Jock, is a man's man and would do anything for a person in need. It pains him to admit it, because he's fiercely independent, but he finally broke down and told me he needs help with the medical bills and to keep things going until his disability kicks in.
I'm going to raffle off my MS660 to raise funds to send to Jock. You all, my Arboristsite family, are some of the finest, big-hearted people I know. I hope you all don't think I'm taking advantage of your kindness, but I know good people when I see them, so I thought I'd come to ask for your help.
My next post will be the details of the raffle.
