A few days ago we noted that comics veteran James Hudnall was going through a very rough patch, with the amputation of his foot due to a diabetic ulcer. We've been following along on his FB page and although his recovery has been good, he's now in a pretty tough spot. The operation took place in Austin, TX where he'd just moved to take a job—which may or may not still exist.

As of this morning he has no place to live, and staying in a motel while he gets his stuff in order is expensive.
