Dear Family, Friends, and Followers of @ The Other Shoe and Facebook,

.

I wanted to publish an update on the Indiegogo Campaign – Danny’s Cancer Treatment Fund’. I have spent HOURS working on this… ‘Mission Statement’ and I am (currently) on my third draft. I keep getting to a ‘Good Point’ and then I look and the darn thing is TEN PAGES long. I have to tighten up the posting. I want people to be able to read it all in just a few minutes.

.

I need to put in Pros & Cons. I need to explain about the availability of the medication(s). I want to have space to share Why I need their help and what will happen without their help. I really need to justify the dollar amount that I have made for the campaign. Last, I am worried and I do not want to say that the preferred medication is not available and find out it is!

.

I have never made a false statement in an Indiegogo campaign, and I do not want to start now! This is very important to me. This campaign is the dividing line between a better life fighting cancer and winning. Or, a worse life of strife and difficulties. I really need to make that crystal clear.

.

Finally, My Dear Readers, I really want to make it something that people will enjoy reading! I know that I can do that, I have done it for over 500 articles! I am riding the edge of a razor blade! If I put this campaign up now… not really complete… facts not confirmed I risk everything! However, I fear that if I wait… I will loose contributors! I simply cannot afford that happening.

.

Therefore, I am going to wait (at least) until Monday when I can confirm the availability of the best chemotherapy drug for my cancer. That will give me time to hone my words and create a piece of work that is informative and enjoyable to read, too!

.

I would like to express my apologies for not ‘Launching’ this campaign… today. I know that had been the intention. However, I have decided that I would rather have my facts straight… then publish and launch and risk damaging my credibility.

.

Thank you for your time and understanding. As well, Thank YOU! for your patience for me to do ‘The Right Thing’. I will, just as soon as I have the needed facts, Launch this campaign… just as soon as I am able. Please hang in there and bear with me while I take the time and make the effort to get this… right.

.

Thank YOU!

.
