I thought I had seen a goal of $3500 last night? Either way, I can't see how that's going to cover what I know medical bills cost, so keep it comin!How do you figure? GFM website currently states:

GoFundMe can automatically raise the goal which is what I assume is what happened.I thought I had seen a goal of $3500 last night? Either way, I can't see how that's going to cover what I know medical bills cost, so keep it comin!

Received the same message from Tiffany thru GFM. Didn’t realize a response was generated.Promising update on the GFM site re @Jerry Daschofsky 's condition:
Today
by Tiffany Daschofsky , Beneficiary
Jerry and I are truly humbled but the outpouring of messages and donations. I shouldn't be surprised, my husband has helped A LOT of people over the years. From his volunteer work for veterans to being a beloved UPS driver and favorite camp cook. Quick update, as my eyes are getting heavy. Jerry is making good progress every day. He should get moved to In Patient Rehab tomorrow morning. There, he will stay 1 to 3 weeks. They will re-scan the clots in his legs to see if they can push off surgery to give his brain and lungs time to rest and heal more.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. Please continue to share the donation link if you can.
Thanks so much for letting us know about Jerry. It's very much appreciated.I’m sure Jer Bear is a friend to many of us. He’s in bad shape. He has been a close friend (brother) and a mentor of mine for many years.
Please help if you can, even if it’s just a note of encouragement and love.
Jerry has devoted his life to helping veterans, active duty, LEO, and first responders. His contributions to Project Healing Waters, and other non-profit organizations had been tireless. Time to give back.
Here is his GFM:
