This thread has all of them. This community has proved how amazing it can be in a crisis before, but this was the first test of that resolve since the migration. There is nothing we can't do.
All my love Talal
Awe. Someone is cutting up some onions in here and it's only 6:50 am.I sincerely want to thank everyone who contributed in any way to make this happen. I wish I could say more I feel like I say the same thing over and over again but this is really mindblowing and extremely generous, I feel sincerely honored to be part of this community. Emotions are crazy for me today been crying for the last two hours or so, I'm gonna get out and take a visit around my home town to remember who I was before the first diagnosis some months ago.
I feel like I was inside a storm this whole time and it's finally starting to clear. I realize the thing I was most afraid of is my parents' suffering. See my parents are very sick (mother is a depressive breast cancer survivor, my father underwent 3 heart surgeries in the last 7 years and has severe cirrhosis now) and these last years haven't been good to us either. In addition to that I'm an only son so I've been the focus of their lives for many years. At first I didn't tell them, I only did one day beause I couldn't hold it anymore when I finally realized I'll be missing on treatment because I was self employed.... Anyway, these last months have been very very tough and dehumanizing for me...
That's why I'm really grateful for what you guys have done for me in any way, be it a wish, a donation, an advice or the BobLobLaw initiative (I will never forget this username for the rest of my life). Thank you for the nth time for giving me a chance to fight again !
Congrats to everyone, and especially Talal. Money ain't a cure but if it gives you a puncher's chance at beating this, on behalf of all of us, it's now your job to KEEP PUNCHING!
Delighted this has been funded.
Has Talal got access to the funds? Has he started treatment?
