A little accounting to take care of here, from an email from Connie:

regarding the "fund" - I am so grateful for what people are doing and how generous they are...such "sweeties". I am so honored to be able to help in this small (to me) way of setting up an account, receiving, depositing. I don't know if I told you or not, K is aware of what is going on and we are putting the account in both of our names for the time being. Later it can be changed to their names.

Thanks so much to everyone for all of the support you've given, in all ways. I think Connie, Wayne, Karen, and Pat are pretty amazing people. I wanted to share a bit of what I sent to Connie:

I am so grateful that he is okay and that we all work so well together to get him there, not the least of which is what you have done, dear lady. You are a very special person and have been an incredible friend to Pat, Karen, the boys and to the rest of us. Thank you for that. Just think what this man has done with his love, humour, and outlook on life, bringing all of us together in a common bond of love for himself, and by extension, each other. Just wonderful.

Thanks,
