FUNDRAISING TO MOVE TO GET HEALTHCARE UPDATE!!!

So the campaign to raise funds so we can move to Michigan has been pretty good so far. I've been amazed at the response from friends,family & fans that want to help. And it's been a major help!! We still have a ways to go, but I will be continuing to offer great deals on artwork, prints, sketchbooks and more til we make the move(we are shooting for late February.)
For those not in the know, my wife and I both suffer from some health issues, and we don't have any health insurance. My issues aren't great, but managable. But my wife, who was diagnosed with cancer in 2006, has problems much more urgent. WE thought we had the cancer taken care of in 2006, but we suspect that it has returned. We have moved around the country in the past few years in hope of getting her some healthcare so that we can get her situation taken care of, and get back on our feet. So far, we haven't had any luck. If you don't have health insurance, no doctor will see you. And the longer we wait, the worse it is getting for her. We are running out of time. And, we are desperate.
Fortunatly, we have come in contact with some people that may be able to help us in Michigan. Plus, I have family & friends there that will be able to help us. 
So, we are trying to raise money to cover the cost of moving and getting situated so we can finally get this problem taken care of. and get back on our feet so we can progress in our goal.

The past month I have been offering great deals on artwork. I also have sketchbooks for sale for $10, $10 sketchies,$5 sketchcards, $10 prints and much much more. So, if you are interested in helping, please visit my Facebook site- http://www.facebook.com/pages/RagzDandelion/105897959925?ref=hl to see what I have for sale.

We can't do it without your help!

SMATTERINGZ!

I want to thank everyone that has contributed and requested artwork in the past few weeks in helping to raise the money for my wife & I. As mentioned in my previous post, my wife has been dealing with some serious health issues, and we have no health insurance. We have friends and family in Michigan, and they're are going to help us move out there, because we have some options in getting me and my wife some healthcare support. But, of course, it takes money to get us there, so I have been having great deals for artwork. $10 sketchies, sketchbooks and more for sale. The response has been incredible, but we still have a way to go to reach our goal. So, if you are interested in giving for some of my original artwork, please feel free to email me at ragzter@aol.com or message me on my Facebook- http://www.facebook.com/pages/RagzDandelion/105897959925?ref=hl . I will also be having super special deals from time to time posted on my Facebook also. We truly appreciate all the help we have received so far, I have the best friends, family & fans in the world!! I thank you all!!

So, I've been busy doing artwork that has been requested, so here's a smattering of artwork and recent sketchbook sketchies to dunk your eyeballs in!

A CALL FOR HELP.

Ok,gang. I really don't know how to say this, so I'm just gonna do it. I'm in desperate need of help. My wife,Stacey, who has cancer, is in need of urgent care. The problem is, we have no health insurance. So, we need to move to Michigan to
 get help and support from our friends and family there. We also may have some options in getting Stacey some treatment once we get there. The biggest obstacle is getting funds for the move, which will include a moving company for our stuff & an RV, for which we will need to rent to transport Stacey from Texas to Michigan(she is unable to fly or drive. She needs to be able to lay down and sleep on the trip).So, I am offering some deals on artwork and such in hopes of raising the money for the moving & traveling expenses. For the next few months I will be offering $10 sketches of anything you want. If you are interested in bigger and more complex artworks, I will work out a deal with you.I also have a limited copies of my sketchbook for $10. More deals will be popping up soon.Or, if you just want to contribute, that would be awesome too!Heck, if you have an RV and wanna drive us there, or a moving truck, etc,anything will help. Or even just pass this along to everyone. I hate asking for this kind of help, especially publicly on Facebook & the internet, but I have no choice. WE NEED YOUR HELP!!! So, please contact me through the messaging on Facebook, or through my email at Ragzter@aol.com. We are hoping to be moving as soon as possible, but that all depends on the funds and the scheduling of others who want to help. I thank you all!-David "The Ragzdandelion" Hanson
