Houston, TX dad can't afford insulin for his three (!) T1 diabetic sons.

EDIT: To clarify, this is not me. I simply came across this on Twitter, and as a parent of one T1 kid, my heart goes out to this guy. Just wanted to share.

I hate doing this...

I'm in a lot of trouble. Due to various reasons - some within my control, some not - my restaurant is in a downward spiral.

Like my employees, I take a paycheck through our accounting office. I'm currently sitting on 9 weeks worth of paychecks that I can't cash. This has resulted in me being continuously behind on my mortgage and car loan. My mortgage is currently about a week away from going into default.

The single most serious issue is that I can't even afford the copays to buy insulin for my kids right now, and I'm down to about a two week supply.

As many of you may know, my youngest son was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes two weeks ago. All three of my boys are now dealing with this currently incurable disease.

I'm not asking for handouts, and sympathy/thoughts/prayers won't solve this problem. (No offense intended to anyone).

I am asking for help.

If you live anywhere within driving distance, please consider having a meal at my restaurant. And tell your friends. Tell everybody. Have more than one meal. We have a huge menu to choose from, and it's all good food, at a reasonable price.

I'm more than willing to earn the money to pay my bills, and I firmly stand behind my product.

Please help. My boys and I are depending on it.

Thanks,
Craig
PS - I know. This is like the worst commercial ever.
