That's a great example. Things like that are the core of what Steem is to me. We're all just people, and if we're here now, we're not here for the money! Heck, we can't even be here for the attention with such few active readers/curators these days looking beyond the top of their feeds.
I also posted several times about my Dad's cancer battle and some elements of our relationship and some Steemians really rose to the occasion to offer guidance and support. One Steemian even donated ~$100 worth of their SBD to promote one of those posts which was lost on the Steem floor, which was an incredible showing of humanity and generosity.
Thank you for sharing an olive branch and for your offer!
