Peter David NEEDS our help

[OBrianTallent]

Here is his wife's latest update. I know times are hard for a lot of us...most of us. But if we all gave a little, there's a lot of people on this site...man the impact we could have on a family that has had such an impact in some way on everyone on this board. Peter has written just about everything. Please consider and give what you can if possible.

Coming to you hat in hand.

I must replace the roof to get our house insured. It is very expensive.

I managed to scrape together the first half between selling some artwork that was hard to part with, a car, my parents who are in their mid-80s and on a fixed income, collectibles were sold, and Peter did a signing.

I figured that I could get a personal loan for 20,000 based on my credit which is good.

I have met with three banks, and they will not lend me the money. They tried to push me towards companies that are nothing short of usury.

Here I am with hat in hand asking for help again.

I said I was the modern Job, but I didn’t expect my bad luck to continue this far.

If you can spread the word to others who are fans of Peter’s, I would appreciate it.

I have exactly a week to get this money together.

I thought that we had money incoming that would have gone a long way to helping me, but it has vanished into the ether and medical and household bills that I have been trying to get a leg up on.

He told me that he appreciates each and every one of you and he is in debt to you that he cannot hope to repay.

Peter is who I am fighting hard for. I want him to be well and come home. I just want him to have a home to come back you. I have been fighting to get the best care I can get him. I fought for eight months to get him to a neurologist, which should have been done at the six-month point. I have fought for wound care. I have fought for people seeing him as Peter and not another client that brings money into the facility. I keep fighting as tired as I am right now body and soul. I will not let him down.

Is this separate from your gofund link? Sorry I don't know much about these things

No, this is part of the gofundme link. Originally the go fund me was set up to help cover Peter's medical costs incurred from his stroke. However, as his recovering has been slow and he has had extended hospital stays as well as still being in physical rehab, their normal living expenses have been severely impacted. A lot of money that seemingly would have gone into fixing the house have gone into remodeling parts of the house to make it livable for Peter (such as widening doorways for wheelchair access and putting in ramps) as well as continuing to pay for Peter's recovery.
If Peter's wife isn't able to get the roof fixed, their homeowners insurance will be revoked and they could stand to lose their home all together. So along with needing help with Peter's medical expenses they find themselves also having to include major home repairs.
