Christmas Miracle - Rebekah Thomas - 21-11-2015
My husband Fabian has had an incredibly hard life. Before we met four years ago, he overcame abuse, cancer and homelessness through music. Despite his incredible talent as a cellist, he still plays on a student cello and was forced to drop out of a music program when his cancer resulted in the loss of a job that was paying both tuition and bills.
Since those days, he has sacrificed everything to put me through school (I graduate with a master's in special education this June) and make my dreams come true. As a result, he has put his own dreams on the sideline. I would like to make g is one greatest (and currently out of reach) dream come true--buying an instrument that will allow him to perform on a professional stage.
I want nothing more than to buy an instrument that will allow him to share his talent with the world. My husband believes we will continue to struggle and he will never get a new cello.... Can you help me work a Christmas miracle and prove him wrong?
You can listen to his music on youtube. A sample can be found at this link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVXKapG0Upc

We don't do 'asking for money' round here. If you want to raise money you need to go to a 'crowdfunding' site. Judging by the date/time stamp on the YT video, your partner can't be in a bad way - if he is able to play a cello - quite a demanding instrument, then he is able to get a job and work to earn the money to buy the instrument he wants. Like the rest of us who like to pursue music have to do. It's not rocket science.
