I didn’t think that I would be writing a diary imploring those on Daily Kos to please contribute to a Go Fund Me page, but I am asking for help on behalf of a friend of mine who has been helping me out during a bleak period in my life.
My friend Lori Clark has the power of attorney for her friend Austin, who is in the hospice and is expected to pass soon. Lori has been giving me emotional support while I deal with my chronic depression, social isolation, lack of a decent full time job, and dealing with my 95 year old Mom who has dementia.
Austin has been battling cancer for two years, and the cancer has drained him physically, emotionally, and financially. Austin is a very dear friend to Lori because he helped her in the past deal with the passing of another friend. She considers him a godsend, and his passing will be a huge blow to her. Austin HAS NO LIFE INSURANCE, and Jefferson County is too cheap to provide a cremation for Austin The fund is to raise enough money to have Austin cremated.
Anything that you all can contribute would be greatly appreciated by myself and Lori.
Thank you!
GO FUND ME FOR AUSTIN’S FINAL WISH.
