All I can say is that he is a man I trust and have known for some time. He is in trouble due to circumstances that he has no control over (health issue). He is not looking for partners or a loan, rather just a bit of help to get past a bump in the road. He did not ask me for assistance, though I gave it to him and am asking for a little more help from this community. For those who wish to participate and help, I have said I can say. If you do not wish to help, that is ok, too. I do not hold anything against those who choose to not help given the circumstances. Most of you know me and if that isn't enough, then it is what it is. Thank you anyway for reading (or not reading).
