My good friend 's home was destroyed early yesterday morning in a horrible house fire. She lived there with her husband and their animals. The entire home was burnt down, and they have absolutely nothing left.
More importantly, her husband was severely injured and has second degree burns over a lot of his body. He was injured pulling Melanie out of the house.
All of their animals were killed except for one of their cats. That included a couple other kitties, pet birds, and their family dog.

They have absolutely nothing left. And David is still in the hospital in intensive care recovering ever so slowly.

Here is a link to the newspaper article of their local town that featured them: http://www.baynews9.com/content/news/baynews9/news/article.html/content/news/articles/bn9/2015/9/13/man_woman_hospitaliz.html#.VfYgSocVPNA.facebook

Melanie's sister has set up a GoFundMe account to help them, and every little bit helps. Please, if you can, donate even the smallest amount. If you can't, please pass this along and post this on your own page. Or, if possible, take a couple commissions and pass the money their way.

I know I am long overdue in commissions, and I do not mean to cause any upset to my commissioners, but this is a unique situation.
So for now I am offering 5 commission spots for some of my ballpoint pen sketches. They will each be $15 instead of the usual $20. THEY WILL BE COMPLETED quickly with a very fast turnover time.

[b]ALL PROCEEDS FROM THESE COMMISSIONS[/b] will go to Melanie to help her and her husband to rebuild from everything they have lost!! Examples:
