My GoFundMe fundraiser update

Hi everyone,

First and foremost, I'd like to thank everyone that donated last week, we raised just over $1100 last weekend which has helped me get really close to meeting my June expense budget.
I can't tell you how grateful I am for your assistance and I so wish my doing this wasn't necessary.
Subtracting the roughly 3% that GFM takes, it put $1068 into my account that I've used to pay rent and several bills so far. It leaves approximately $132 to meet my needs for June.

I feel so many amazing feelings in response to your generosity and please know that every donation offers the growing relief of stress that I am going through.

If you are in a position to help, please know that your donation is helping me meet my basic needs going forward.
I'm only sorry to keep asking and pray you can find knowing that any gift given will be valued and appreciated as an additional motivation to donate.
Thank you for your amazing support and be comforted that I'm so humbled by your acts of love and kindness.
Love,
John Mckusick

Had to wait and see how much I had left after the bills and was feeling sorry I'd missed it.

Sorry it couldn't be more.
