Song about Pie (in the sky)
“You will eat [You will eat] bye and bye [bye and bye]
In that glorious land above the sky [Way up high]
Work and pray [Work and pray] live on hay [live on hay]
You'll get pie in the sky when you die [That's a Lie!)”
Since my last update, small donations were received, together totalling $54.25 
I'm getting very close to reaching my goal 
**I had to use $185.25 from funds raised to pay for my emergency dental gums surgery & $54.67 for more emergency dental on my gums. Total spent on 2 recent emergencies: $239.92 **
Current numbers for my fixed dentures fundraiser:
$1,812.93 CDN in donated funds received as of July 7th.
$2,330 − $1,812.93 = $487.07
$487.07 + $239.92 = 726.99
Total still needed: $726.99
If you can donate anything at all to help me pay for fixed dentures, please use my PayPal or e-transfer or Kofi.
