spoke with Theresa this afternoon

I am not ok with her sleeping in a van with Grizwald

Below is a note from her with the way to zelle

I no longer do paypal like I did in the past for our family
 because off some bad $hit that happened to us

Please zelle what you can so she can stay at a motel and not the van with the dog as Gig has a long road
to recovery out of ICU

Gig when you come around you damn well better appreciate what a great gal you have

--------------------------------------

Thank you for your prayers,  love & support. We really appreciate & love all of you. Our contact info is with Zelle.    Tpaul60i@gmail.com    Thank you  

---------------------------

We are sending a test amount now  Do not send $ until I post the test went thru ok

Likewise my friend.  I just texted Lulu to see if she was still awake to get an update.  No response, so I hope she is getting some much needed sleep.

I checked the hospital's website earlier and wasn't able to find any option to do that, unfortunately...

Evan,

Thanks for taking the initiative and doing this! When we get the go-ahead, I'll be most happy to make a contribution... Gig & Lulu have meant so much to our group, and they have given so much to us all in various ways, that it's now our turn to step up and do something for them... It gives me goosebumps just thinking about it!

It looks like Gig is getting a high quality of care at a very good hospital.  My prayers continue.  I will do what I can to help, but I'm also not on Zelle and don't want to set up a new account there.

For those of you who don't use Zelle, I will get Theresa's address and IM it to those that request it from me, you could then send her a check (remember those?) directly.

If Theresa has a PayPal account people can still send her money to it as a gift.

Having more than one option would be good.

If she's not at home it would be hard to get a check out of the mailbox and into the bank.



I've NEVER used Zelle.

I just went to Zelle's website and it does appear that if your bank uses Zelle you can send money directly from your usual banking app.

I went to my bank using the banks app and it looks like it will be "Easy Peasy" to transfer money once I have the info of where to send it to.

I agree, but she is not in immediate need of funds, most of the money will be used for the long term expenses, bills, etc.

It appears you are correct.  I was interpreting the line that says, "below is a note from her ..."  It appears the comment may not have been as immediate as I expected.

Good call... I just checked my bank... I could zelle through them. I didn't
mash the "let's get started" zelle-button, but it was there...

Post the address and I will send a check as well.  Of course she will have to get them from her home address, which may not be very convenient.  Will also need to know who to make the check out to.

Just so every one knows, Theresa has, a job and will be returning home probably on a weekly.  She is in fact on her way if not slready home today.  Also she is not in dire need of funds,  BUT I'm sure the bills will mount up.  She has told me she does not want to stay in a hotel room, and would rather stay in her van with Grizwald.  She said she has a health club membership and can shower there.  I tried to talk her out of it, but that is what she wants.  And she said Grizz is cool with it, he loves his van.

I just hope the parking garage is safe, and Theresa has a little something other than Grizz's teeth for additional backup.

Heard from Ryan and Theresa today.  Gig woke up and they took the vent tube out, if he cannot breathe on his own they will have to do a trach, so far so good.  He is in and out of it so we don't know if he is all there yet, but over all, GREAT NEWS!  Last Monday I had my doubts, but with prayer and positive vibes, he is doing well. 

Theresa is back at work (still as I type this) and will be heading back to Columbus with Grizz on Sunday.  She said Grizz was VERY happy to see her.
