Bad developments...
Hello Friends and Fans of James,Here is the latest news: At the last update, James' building was taking legal action to force James to move. He has tentatively made an agreement with them to stay, but he has to clean out Judy's room because it's a two person space and the building needs to rent that half of the apartment. Up until now James has been unable to comply in cleaning out her space, because of his physical condition, but Sylvia Reed has generously agreed to help him. I am hopeful that this will resolve things however we need to see significant movement towards this goal before the building will make it official that he can remain there.Unfortunately James' physical health has deteriorated to the point where he can no longer even leave the apartment. He has an aide from social services that comes in 5 days a week to bring him groceries and other supplies. He can get around the apartment with a walker but that's about it, he's afraid to venture out.Another problem that occurred is that the mailman just assumed James had moved and stopped delivering his mail because it was piling up in his mailbox. As a result of this, his Social Security Disability got cut off, which was his only source of income outside of this GoFundMe. I had to step in and pull some funds out of the GoFundMe account to keep him afloat, which I had to arrange through his aide because his bank account had become dormant and they closed it. Thankfully his aide is an honest and trustworthy person and he is not totally alone.As you can tell it's been a challenging time trying to keep James from falling through the cracks. It's difficult because I can only do so much long distance. I hope we can boost some donations to help shore up his funds until we resolve the issue with his SS Disability.Thanks everyone who has donated and reached out, I don't know what the family would have done if not for all of your generosity.
