Artist Dave Simons, close friend endeared by all, is suffering spreading esophageal cancer and mounting chemotherapy radiation treatment.
 While the bulk of Dave’s medical costs are covered by the Veteran's Administration, day-to-day costs (utilities, rent, groceries) are a struggle and won’t become easier as his condition worsens.

Let’s help Dave, a great fellow and artist who gives much and asks for little.
About hope. In absence of it, life dies. Hope must then be placed in the source of life. In anything else, anyone else, it is misplaced.
The medical profession, alongside cures and relief it helps bring, can also misplace hope in its limited knowledge and understanding. By its intrinsic inability to give life. It's inability to give true hope in the source of life and healing.
This is then left for us to do. To place our hope where it belongs so we may live. So we may be healed and give healing. It is a small switch within us to make. Within Dave Simons and concerned friends. Within everyone suffering from illness.
A small switch necessitating forces we only call upon in our most dire hour.
Why wait?
