You know, we wanted to go see some of the places that he grew up and where I grew up and let him meet our folks. And so we had him for a few days in Oklahoma over Christmas. And that was the extent of his big move to Oklahoma.

Let me jump in there, Aiden. So he has a sister that lives in San Antonio, and she is a very good steward of money. She knew her brother well enough to know that he was going to be taking time off of work until he found his son. She did not need Chris or Katie's permission to help her brother. Maybe they didn't need a GoFundMe.

Knowing what we know now, no more time than they spent looking for him, they didn't need a GoFundMe. Seth was planning on taking time off of work and he was planning on searching for Sebastian until he found him. And, you know, Seth is he's not a paycheck to paycheck guy, but he's a guy that doesn't have a lot of extra money. He was very blessed.

I think there was twenty four to twenty five thousand dollars raised in that account. The first couple of months, he had some co-workers that donated some PTO time to him, which they allow them to do in the county. Okay. It amounted to about 23 days. All right. And then, you know, there was probably a couple of month period after that. where he literally went with no income at all.

So, you know, Seth, you know, we're going to have to get personal tonight to dispel some of these rumors. And some of these things we really didn't choose to get personal on regarding the mother, et cetera. But, you know, he's about $4,000 or $5,000 a month it takes him to survive.

So, you know, if you go a couple of months without an income at all, you know, there's $8,000 to $10,000 of that money. Right. You couple that with the fact that he was buying all of those signs. Those were not donated. He put signs all over Hendersonville. He had two PIs working. One of them was pro bono. The other one was paid. He paid her to the tune of about $3,000.

And he stretched that money all the way out to where even today there's still – Probably a grand in that account.

So, you know, you can imagine over time, you know, we made a trip to Virginia that cost about $1,500 to chase down a lead. I mean, you know, he basically wore the tires off of his truck driving back and forth. He had truck problems. I mean, you know, and what we find interesting is that in every one of these missing children's cases, somebody always sets up a GoFundMe.
