To all of Charles's friends,

I’m reaching out today to ask for your help. As many of you know, Charles has been battling ulcerative and inflammatory conditions and has been hospitalized since Thanksgiving with a recent kidney complication.

This comes at an incredibly difficult time. Charles is currently unemployed and facing a mountain of expenses, from steep COBRA premiums to mounting hospital bills. The financial strain, on top of the physical toll of his illness, is considerable.

Time is critical. With 2026 just days away his insurance deductible is about to reset, creating another immediate financial hurdle for the care he desperately needs.

I am asking for your help to lift this burden so he can focus on his recovery. Please consider making a donation today. Any amount will provide relief, but if you're unable to donate, you can still offer powerful support by sharing this request within your network.

Thank you for your love and generosity. I will be sure to keep you updated on his journey.

-Laurie
