Hi all.  This is another post in which I ask for money, but not on behalf of myself.   If such posts bother you, please go on about your busi­ness. I’ve gone back and forth on whether or not I should post this, ask­ing you all to help a com­plete stranger. But ulti­mately, I decided that it would be let­ting down my fam­ily if I didn’t say some­thing about it.  So here goes.

I’m ask­ing on behalf of a fam­ily mem­ber, my Aunt Renee, who recently lost a leg due com­pli­ca­tions from dia­betes.  She and her hus­band both live very much on a fixed income , and are now fac­ing very dif­fi­cult expenses not for the hos­pi­tal­iza­tion, but for the equip­ment and home adap­ta­tion costs so that she can do very sim­ple things like make it from her car to her front door.  The fam­ily has approached many orga­ni­za­tions for aid with the costs, but none have any fund­ing due to the economy.

I’ve helped my fam­ily set up a web­site to sell $1.99 down­loads of a song my mother wrote and recorded along with mus­cians around the world.  The site also has a dona­tion but­ton you can use if you’d rather just give a cou­ple of bucks and aren’t inter­ested in the music.    We’re not ask­ing for hand-​​outs.  But whether or not you lis­ten to the song is up to you I guess.  We’re try­ing to offer some­thing in return.

Anyway.  I appre­ci­ate, and the fam­ily appre­ci­ates, any help you can pro­vide.  You’ll have my grat­i­tude especially.
