Dear friends, relatives and supporters of David~
Not so long ago, we laughed and cried with David as he addressed us from the Becker Theatre stage at the Emery Weiner School during the Larry Gatlin concert fundraiser. At that time, we held onto the hope that his ALS progression would be slow and painless. David’s journey has been neither, but his strength, courage, grace, quick wit and kind-heartedness are as strong as ever.
Largely due to your support, both financial and in friendship, David has been able to maintain his sense of dignity and will to push through the long days and nights. What a blessing that he has this time with his children. Next month, he will watch (by video) all three graduate: Miles from Brandeis University, Bailey from Bellaire High School and Emery from the Kinder High School for the Performing and Visual Arts.
Many of you are aware of the skyrocketing costs associated with David’s need for round-the-clock skilled nursing care. Although he is receiving some Medicaid help (well after a year from applying), the benefits don’t come close to covering the expenses.
Additional financial support is needed. If you can help, now is the time.
Thank you for standing with David and his family in all the ways you have. Please keep sending text messages to David! Like your friendship, they sustain him!

P.S. This video clip from the Gatlin event is worth watching again. And again.
