We all know Carl and what he is going through. I would like to start a fund
for Carl. I have talked to some friends about this and if Carl agrees to it
this is what I would do. I would like to collect money to be used to get
him a doctor's appointment and to pay for his medication only. Once I
collect all the money, I would use my own money and drive to Carl's. I
would then pick him up take him to a doctor, pay the doctor, then take him
to the drug store and buy his medication. I would then have his doctor bill
me for his visits and have a standing account to pay for his medication
depending on if I can get people to donate it for this purpose. Also
depending on if Carl will accept this help. I will start off by donating a
$100. I promise each and everyone who donates money that this money will go
for doctor bills and medication. I will keep records of the money and post
on every penny taken in. I will pay for my own room and gas for the trip
and my food. Let me know what you all think of this idea. I think I can
find a doctor that will help Carl. I would do this on my own but I am
afraid my funds will not let me at this time.
Carl, if I can make this happen would you accept it? I can not promise
people will donate any thing but it is worth a try. If I can not get enough
money together then the money will be returned to each person who donated
it. I do not want to get your hopes up but it is all I can think of to do.
