For those of you that do not follow@any of my personal accounts, here’s a quick update because this s**t is exhausting. Thanks to all the magnificent folks at Mt. Sinai Hospital, I am alive, well, and improving daily. AND, apparently, my chest now takes credit cards.

Well folks, we finally had some good news come my way, and I’m very happy to give you all this latest update. Because of the unbelievable response, generosity, and outpouring of love and support the GoFundMe account , as well as simply word of mouth, has received, it drew the attention of my local New York State assemblywoman Carrie Woerner. She reached out to me to see if there was anything she could do to help. After the appeal to my health insurance company was denied, she advocated on my behalf, made a call or two and shortly thereafter I received a call from my insurance company telling me they had reconsidered, and they would indeed cover much of my procedure with the surgeon that my specialist referred me to down at Mount Sinai Hospital. I can’t thank Assemblywoman Woerner, and her staff, enough for voluntarily and successfully advocating on my behalf, and I can’t thank each and every one of you enough. Without such an extraordinary and overwhelming response to my ordeal, none of this happens. None of it. Your heartening and uplifting generosity will all be going towards ensuring that I can economically endure this very frightening surgery and convalescence, and that Desperate Annie’s will remain open and survive it as well, hopefully for many years to come.
My undying thanks to every one of you. I will never be able to express my gratitude properly enough. I will keep posting updates up to, and through my May 14th surgery.
My love to every single one of you. Cheers!

Hey everyone, let me start by once again thanking each and every one of you for your generosity, love, and support. It absolutely makes all the difference, and is truly getting me through this ordeal. Here is the latest…I received a letter today from CDPHP denying my appeal. My options as it stand now are to file a secondary appeal and hope for a better outcome, or they will cover most of my procedure IF I go to an inferior surgeon, at inferior facilities, against the reccommendation and wishes of my local cardiologist who has been monitoring my situation every 6 months for the past 6 years. This of course adds precious time for me and my condition that is deteriorating and according to my cardiologist, is in need of this surgery asap. Thank you one and all once again. Love to you all.
God bless the American health care system. Huzzah!

Hello all, this is likely a very inadequate attempt on my part to express my gratitude, but in the past 24-36 hours since my fundraiser was initially posted, the sheer amount of love and support that has flooded over me has completely and earnestly overwhelmed me. I’m having a very difficult time expressing just how grateful I am. I’ve spent much of the time just bawling from the love I’ve felt. From those that could merely share the page, to everyone who has made a donation no matter how small or large, from complete strangers to friends to family, you HAVE ALL already made an immeasurable impact. I simply was ill prepared for so much love and support. As you might imagine, the prospect of going through open heart surgery, being on a heart and lung machine is daunting, stressful, and anxiety riddled on a daily (even hourly) basis. To also have the weight of potentially losing a livelihood that’s all I’ve ever known, wanted, and loved sharing with you for 32 years, has been almost unbearable. You have all made that one less worry. The anxiety and stress that you have all lifted from my shoulders has allowed me seemingly to breathe for the first time in what seems like months. This has truly been my George Bailey, “It’s a Wonderful Life” moment, and each and everyone of you has already touched my heart and made an impact you may never fully realize.
I do not know what the future has in store for me, but assuming I make it through all this, I’m thinking we have ourselves a great big party (I’ll basically have a new, 20 year warranty on my heart, so I’ll be raring to go ). I will be keeping you all posted with updates as this ordeal progresses, but as for now, from the bottom of my very defective heart, thank you. I love you all.

Travis
