Done! (((PITH))) I lost my dad, it will be three years ago tomorrow, I know what you mean about promises. My dad was diagnosed with cancer (nothing new in that story, unfortunately) and my children and I moved in with him to help with cooking, cleaning, doctors visits and his basic care. He was given a two month death sentence but made it a little over a year...I have 10 siblings, a step mother etc, but it was my little crew and me that stepped up to the plate, and I look back now and wouldn't have traded one day of that time to have been doing anything else with my life. It was time well spent, we shared laughs, memories, our hopes and dreams, and the Salina Journal everyday lol! Anyways, ya see when I was little I lived a while with my mother in a pretty bad situation...actually it ended up being a life or death situation...I called my dad on the phone at right around midnight told him what was going down....a little over 5 hours later my dad backed his 1979 chevy truck up to the front door loaded up my stuff, my cat and me and took me two states back home to live with him...he saved my life that day and I never forgot that. I wish you the best of luck, you'll make it man hang in there!

Will light a candle for your dad. Keep holding onto all those wonderful memories. Thank you for helping PITH. I'll pass your post onto him as he is still having cell phone issues. Sending you love and green lights.

Spideyman I found this thread tonight and followed the link, I saw that PITH's gofundme is still open. I'm just wondering if he's still able to receive payments from it?
I've saved the link to my favourites as I know times are really tough everywhere with COVID and things and if he can still access the fund I would like to be able to donate to it whenever I have some spare. Would you be able to find out for me please?
