I have hopefully my last major surgery to get me back to being able to not be on crutches and walking — I will never walk normally- since my right leg has 6 inches of bone and hip joint is gone and fused into the pelvis.

So, if you see anything or are willing to help out— I have a surgery and neuro-surgical procedure that I have insurance for but the 20 Percent I will be responsible for is estimated and they want guaranteed funds up front before they will book the high end clean room-Surgical suite- I have to be in this more expensive -Clean Room- Because my immune system is wiped out and the Room and Equipment is all like being in outer space with space-suits with controlled air not going into the surgical suite.

Anyway— I have to raise- $6,000 which is my portion- it doesn’t sound like much- but I have sold every asset I own except some of the Pool and Billiard items I have left.

I will post pictures - but I don’t know how many pictures it will let me post—

Thanks and most people know me or have seen me having to sell lots of my collection and tools and such to pay ongoing medical expenses—

If you look at my Itrader feedback- it is almost perfect and if you have any trust issues- please ask around- because many azbilliards people have bought or sold from me and or have been on the Facebook sites also.

I accept almost all payment options— but I don’t accept
No PAYPAL—No PAYPAL
They screwed me over on a Unique Taper Shaper I sold and they would. It return my monies— Would not give a real reason— other than I had sold lots more in one month than any time before— I explained it was due to a situation just like this situation I am in, I have to sell a bunch of items, quickly to stay alive and pay for a major medical surgery.
They didn’t care and The customer I sold the Machjne to, refused to allow me to refund the money to him and have him send the money another way— He had my Unoque Taper Shaper already, it was at his house and worked perfectly. But he wanted nothing to do with sending me the funds another way.
So, I had to wait 6 months without those funds- I had to take out a loan-at 240% APR- to have the money immediately to have the surgery done- it wa my only option—So after that, I closed my paypal account and will never do business with them ever again.

Anyway— take a look and if you see anything or want to buy a large lot or are in a position to help— I am open at this time- to any options- until I raise the necessary funds to cover the surgical expenses.

Thanks —my phone and text number. Is 727-277-9853, reach out and I can send pictures — thru text also- a little easier— also we can talk and discuss lots of otther items I have—.

I don’t have a list of prices—

Let me know what you would like to buy and as long as it is not trying to steal
Or totally take advantage of my situation, inam
Sure I will do the deal with you.

Regards

Mike “the cueman”
Kennedy

Also my emails is

Michaelkennedy_1@yahoo.com

A member asked me to post my GoFundMe page—

If you can help, thanks so much- and if you don’t need anything now- please keep looking and if I post somethjng you like after you made a donation- please reach out to me and I would be happy to send out the pool or billiard ite
- in the future for the donation today—


Happy New Year to everyone and Good health to you and your family and friends—

I had exactly the opposite reaction when I had a bad transaction on the internet and paid with Paypal. I had a real person on the phone within a minute of calling. When I hung up a half hour later the money was already back in my Paypal account and they had forwarded my transaction details on to the nice folks at the FBI internet fraud division. No complaints at all about the way was treated.

I have heard that the way they care for you differs if you are transferring money to a friend without fees or buying something where oneof the parties pays the 3% transaction fee. First case you are on your own, as you are also with Venmo and Zelle. Second case they want to fix because they want people to use the service (and make money on) for commercial transactions to compete with the credit cards.

Bless all and HAPPY NEW YEAR—
Mike, please paste a link for your Go Fund Me page. It will allow people to easily access it.

Mike, you’ve been around this forum for awhile and have always been kind and thoughtful.
$6000……that should be easily attained and then some. You’ve struggled with medical hardship
for many years and so I am here to ask…..in fact, I am begging……every Azer that has ever been
confronted with any medical or financial hardship to take a moment and think about trying to help?

I do not have much personal wealth but I have a heart and I deal with medical problems caused by
an on the job accident 13 years ago. I can never understand your misery but I can relate to it somewhat.

$6000……if 120 Azers kicked in $50 each, that’s all is required or 240 people contribute $25 each. All
I know is I cannot stand on the sidelines and read your post without my heart aching. Selling off your
mementos so you can raise money for your surgery pulls at my hearts strings and I can’t just read your
thread and think….Boy, I hope it all turns out okay for Mike. I can’t just behave with indifference after
seeing how many years you’ve struggled with medical problems and accompanying financial hardship.

Post a link for your go fund me page and I’ll donate $50 and only wish I could give more at this time. So
I am asking 119 other Azers to do the same. In fact, how about a few hundred or more donating whatever
they can and let’s see how close we can get. I’m hoping we could raise $10k but we will never know if we
don’t try. It’s hard to reach out to ask others for financial help and so you are selling your possessions. Well,
I don’t have to bear your cross or walk in your shoes but I can ask and even plead for help on your behalf.

Come on fellow fellow Azers…..start 2023 with a gesture of kindness and benevolence by donating to Mike’s
Go Fund Me. You’ll feel better afterwards when he writes to let us know his surgery went well which I am hoping
happens. But it can’t happen fast enough without our help. So join me in donating to a worthwhile cause. Just
remember this…..and it is oh so true…..BUT FOR THE GRACE OF GOD….please do whatever you can to help.

Matt thanks so much for the kind words— I hope I am now heading toward a good place in my health again- it has been a long road- but I am alive—

Here is a link to my Go Fund Me—

I would love to get pool and billiard items I do have left into collector and players hands- but I am doing anything I can to raise the funds to do this next surgery—

Here is the link and Happy New Year and I send my blessing and hopes that everyone is in good health because without it- life is hard to really enjoy—

Regards

Mike Kennedy

Please join me and the other individuals that have donated to this very worthwhile cause.
I am not here to toot my horn but simply to blow the trumpet as loud as I can to gain attention.

Anyone that’s faced hardship knows what I am speaking of. Help is always welcomed & appreciated.
Please do whatever you can to help Michael who has struggled with his medical needs way too long.

Matt Brennan
Okay, I heard your trumpet. I'm relying on your reputation. $50 is on its way. It's an awesome system in this country where you can have medical insurance, then when you need to use the medical insurance it bankrupts you. Actually, because GoFundMe takes a cut of the proceeds, how can I send the money directly to the beneficiary?

Mike Kennedy is a solid, stand up person. I’m not sure how to get him the money other than say PayPal as family & friends since no purchase is being made. Thanks for noticing his situation, caring and stepping up. When I think about the size of the Forum, gosh, I’d give a few bucks every month to a worthwhile cause for any forum member that I was acquainted with, or not. I give money to homeless people. I don’t think of it as charity but rather having a charitable heart. So on behalf of Mike Kennedy & despite that I am not acting as his intermediary, I want to thank you for kindness and helping.
