People can surprise you.

Update posted by David Kusner

So let me just start by saying WOW!! I had never expected this campaign to reach so far and wide as it has so far and for the over whelming response that we have had so far. Once again a big thanks to all the past backers as well as all the new backers from the past couple of days. Thank you! Words alone cannot express enough my gratitude to everyone of you.

I feel so humbled by all the contributors to this campaign. Besides the monetary assistance one of the most important aspects of this type of campaign I feel, is the positive energy that is created out of it. Its something that is hard to fully describe, but in such times of uncertainty when the world is in a crisis with its self, it helps to restore your belief in the world that we are currently living in and I suppose your belief in humanity as a whole.

My brother Jeremy has received many messages from all over the world, from people from different walks of life, some who we have not been in touch with for more than 20+ years, others that are simply just sending messages of support and encouragement. We are truly thankful to you all!

For me personally, I have a sense of great achievement so far, that something that I literally though-up in no less than 5 minutes, at some weird hour of the early morning (Like 2 or 3am) a few weeks back, after having a very long phone call conversation with my brother, is actually going to help him, after I felt so helpless and wished I had the financial means, to their and then simply just send him however much he needed to go on and not worry, because had the roles been reversed, my brother would not hesitate to do it for me. I had such a feeling of desperation, not for myself, but for my brother a few weeks back and the response to the campaign so far has definitely made light of that for me.

As I sit here and write this update, I cannot believe that in just short of 3 weeks, we will have already hit the halfway mark in the year! Wow it seemed like just yesterday that on the 23 of March this year, we heard the first rumors of the possible impeding lock down and Wham just days later their it was and now it is a reality and our daily life for who knows how long?

A huge thank you to everyone again!! Please do me a favor and like and share my post on Facebook. Even just the the simple action of a "like" and a share is as good as any contribution to this campaign. My Gd bless you are your family's with health and all other good things. Stay safe!!
