Thank you Thank you Thank you,

Thanks to several very generous donors, not only did my September bills get taken care of, but almost all of October as well.
I will not be posting any GoFundMe me requests until mid September, to finish October and begin for November a bit later. (Assuming no decision from Social Security.)
I have mentioned to several donors recently in my GFM thank you messages a message that all of you should know.
Every day, in doing little things around the house, things I used to take for granted, now give me numerous opportunities to feel the immense gratitude for all of your support instead. And I mean ALL of your support.
You treat me well, not like some sorry wretch you happened upon. I've never felt judged here. I've never felt talked down to. I've never felt pitied.
I've felt loved, embraced, empathy, kindness, acceptance, and at least in my mindset, more importantly than all of those incredible gestures from you, I have felt and feel valued and befriended.
I look so forward to sleeping a little better, to being focused on so many beautiful, poignant, incredible, troubling, scary, inspiring, and loving posts that you lift my spirits with daily, and just breathing a little easier for a minute. I feel like I'm the hamster and they let me off the tread wheel.
Thank you to every single one of you. Please know that underlying every word typed here is a bed of gratitude in full bloom thanks to months and months of your nurture.
Love, John
