I'm Breahing The Rules - Yes, Again!
|
|
Yes, I know better! Yes, I know that the practice is NOT to send out “social media / marketing things / promotional materials, etc., out on Fridays - especially Friday evenings. The only worse day is likely Saturday. Still, if there’s good news to share, share it! I also know that there are some folks who are very concerned and eager to receive any updates as soon as possible.

First, I want to immensely thank those who have become “Gifters” on my website (GBHull.com). Whether yours was a one-time contribution or a recurring gift; whether you gifted anonymously, or allowed your name to be added on my “Gifters” page, my attendants and I extend our heartfelt gratitude.

As a follow-up to my “send out” on August 7, I am happy to let you know that the Direct Funding’s Finance Department has agreed to “accept removal of identification of any (attendant/staff’s) personal information. The client's (that’s me) suggestion of using unique employee identifiers will be accepted.”

A funding challenge still remains though, and that is to find a replacement for WSP-A. Unfortunately since losing that funding, I've had to make the hard choice of either paying my staff the full hours that I absolutely need, or submit my monthly payroll deductions to CRA. I simply can't do both without a replacement for WSP-A.
|
|
As a result, I'm about to be 3 months in arrears on my CRA payroll payments - approximately some $6,000.00. To try to combat this, I have set up a "Gifters" page GBHull.com/Gifters) on my website. I am happy to say that this page has already generated over $700.00 to date. I realize this is only a small portion, but I am hopeful that my “Gifters” clan will continue to grow.

Something that has become very evident (to me anyway) is that each time I fear losing my funding, my physical health and well being becomes severely affected. Last month, when having the stint removed from the Lithotripsy, I was told I have more stones in my other kidney. They’re not as big and should be passable, but most of this past week, with not knowing if I would have any funding to pay my attendants after the end of August, I was experiencing more kidney stone issues.

|
Still, tonight as I write this to you all, I am very grateful for your support, encouragement, and for your belief in my abilities to live a purposeful life in a community that I cherish.

I can also accept money orders, and even cash, but please, no cheques. (in the past I've had some bounce, and I've been left having to pay NSF charges.
