An Emotional Thank You From My Mother, Mary Jo: 

"To everyone who has donated, I want to say thank you so much. Literally, without your support, I would not have been able to be at Tom's side on Christmas Eve and Day. It means the world to me to be able to be with him, and we know it's helping the healing process."

Thomas is going through a particularly difficult time right now. I can't tell you how much it means to me to be able to see my mom and brother at Thomas's side. Thank every one of you."
