Howard and I met at 5 years of age when I moved in across the hall from apartment 1B. Boyhood friends and then for all but two years of our adulthood, we've had our adventures! Now, I'm Howard's power of attorney. If you're reading this, you already know the challenges Howard has with FTD and the miraculous way he's handled these circumstances; Howard's a model of triumph over this monumental adversity with his grit, humor and honesty. Howard and I have together stared down the hard cold facts, he doesn't have the safety net he paid for years while working as a sales executive. Unum, his disability insurance provider has withheld benefits based on a technicality. While Unum has disappeared his disability benefits, his needs don't disappear with them. Howard lives month to month and absent a breakthrough with Unum, his financial situation is not sufficient to meet his needs. If you are someone who can make a difference with a dollar or a hundred thousand of them, will you use the PayPal button on the page to make a donation? These funds go directly to a trust account which will be used to assure his future medical and living needs will be met. Your donations provide both the means to live and, peace of mind for Howard. Like all of us all, he richly deserves to live out these days with dignity. Thank you - Marc Turkel (Apartment 1E across from Howard's, 1B)

By the way, PayPal is very convenient, safe and effective way to transfer money using the internet. It leverages financial institutions, is used around the world and is widely accepted by online retailers.
DeleteThe biggest concern about PayPal is not security (which is already proven to be safe). if your'e a vendor receiving payments from PayPal you may experience random 90 day waiting periods to receive your money. THis is well documented and being worked out however, this problem will not impact us. You can read more about PayPal here:

Dementia is a deterioration of mental condition. Dementia usually occurs in later life, though rarer cases of presenile dementia are diagnosed.
