Holy crap man, best of luck. I'm not sure how I would function enough to hold one job. Do you have any active crowd funding or anything going on right now?

- baldfat 11y agoEdit: I certainly don't mind sharing about our family's and son's struggle. Please don't feel bad that you brought up something bad or talking about it. Unfortunately he passed away 2 years ago. We had an incredible supportive local community and few local organizations who's purpose was supporting local families. I do highly recommend supporting St. Baldrick's http://www.stbaldricks.org/ http://www.stbaldricks.org/ for cancer research. Kids get the shaft in research money especially with only 1% from Cancer Society of America and 4% of the Federal Cancer Research Grants got o fight pediatric cancer. Any adult research is of little value to kids, but any findings with kids benefits adults in cancer treatment. So in 20+ years we have the first new chemo drug because of St Baldrick's research funded project paid off.

- omginternets 11y agoGood god. Nobody should have to go through that. From one internet stranger to another: my sincerest condolences. Edit: Victor Hugo lost his daughter and subsequently wrote what I consider to be one of the most beautiful poems in the French language. Here it is with an English translation: http://www.frenchtoday.com/french-poetry-reading/poem-demain-des-l-aube-hugo http://www.frenchtoday.com/french-poetry-reading/poem-demain... I wish I could do more.
