Done and get better soon. I'll be giving you a call on Monday 11:00 am or so my time. Hope the # is the same as you gave me earlier.
I apologize for not posting this information sooner! My time has been slightly limited as Grapeshot is recovering at our house & has kept me hopping!
We are pleased with the response to date from everyone who has donated money and shown their support. A lot of tears shed here, that's for sure. We'll never be able to thank all of you enough. Never.

Most of us hate PayPal for their anti-gun policies. Some of us hate PayPal even more for some of the other tomfoolery they have done when playing with "our" money.
But in spite of all this, we get some small amount of shedenfreude when using them to fund gun-positive activities.

I doubt Grapeshot's going to say much online about this. He's humbled over the response as well as somewhat self conscious I think. As sick as he's been, he rode with Skidmark to the motions hearing in Surry on Tuesday. It was obvious it was a struggle and he wasn't feeling well. I took a few videos.
Comparing the pictures with older ones I had, he's lost a lot of weight and he didn't have any to lose to start with....but he still managed to drag himself out long enough to support Skid.
I have not responded before this because I truly did not know what to say. I did not want help from anyone else - a man should take care of himself, that's the way I was raised. I realize that circumstances sometimes go beyond our capacity to respond and that is where I find myself. Acceptable to me was my family lending a hand, but the knowledge that people whom I have never met but through these pages has taught me something dramatic and profound - you are ALL my family and I part of yours. This is indeed a brotherhood, a family, of epic proportions.
Just as the title reads, we goofed with regard to how checks and/or money orders should be payable! Unfortunately, the bank will not accept checks payable to "Grapeshot Assistance Fund". To those of you who have already sent checks, they will be returned, with our many thanks and apologies for the inconvenience.
In light of the above, if you wish to send donations in this manner, we request that they be payable to Dawn Welch and memo the check to read "Grapeshot Assistance Fund" (the mailing address remains the same)

Again, we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to send me a PM!
Thank you so very much for your continued support.
With warm regards,
Diane
Just sent some via PayPal. I hope you're feeling better, GS!
