Dear Kossacks and readers:
We called, you came, you dazzled! Denise Oliver Velez posted an intriguing fundraising story for BFSkinner two days ago, We need a horde of helpers for BFSkinner!
We needed people to roll coins toward BFSkinner’s pockets, and the Daily Kos horde took aim. We built a bridge of gelt to get him to his January 12th Social Security income hearing. Yesterday he exhausted himself unraveling red tape at his Medicaid office.
Our goal was $750. We reached $1550 at midnight last night!
“Wow, this place is amazing, sorry I was asleep. The total is now $1550. :-)
Thanks to everyone again!” ~ BFSkinner

This noble community reduced BFSkinner’s fears about financial catastrophe. Reducing fear improves health; fear fragments fitness. You protected my friend in ways I could not. Thanks, everybody, what a wonderful community!
make last paragraph small
BFSkinner's discharge paperwork is done. His brother is about to drive him home. BF expects to rest for a while. Once he recovers from the trip home, he will post a diary. Hurray!
Setting the record straight
I made two mistakes in my previous diary about BFSkinner's hospitalization: His elevated CO2 was more serious than I knew at the time. He did have Internet access while in the hospital. However, he cannot access Daily Kos very well on his smart phone because of vision and font-size issues. He did not lose his Internet connection except when he was unconscious and/or when his phone lost its charge. Apparently after his surgery, while he was posting something on his FaceBook page, he became very weak and/or lost consciousness and pressed a key or keys too long, producing one or two lines of meaningless text. I hope this did not scare his FB friends. 2thanks

Here's how to help:
Denise Oliver Velez will post a fundraiser diary for BFSkinner tomorrow, Wednesday, at 2 p.m. Our goal is $750. With a good outcome from his January Social Security hearing, this may be our last fundraiser for BFSkinner.
BFSkinner told 2thanks:
“I am looking forward to the day when I will be receiving Social Security disability income regularly, and I will no longer have to rely on the wonderful Daily Kos community for my basic needs.”
At that point, BFSkinner will be able to return to writing his nightly “Question of the Day” series without interruptions for fundraising stories. ~ 2thanks
