Avery the Poke Kid update: Heartbreaking GoFundMe reveals 12-year-old lost ‘pancreas, gallbladder, spleen’ before death

In a shocking turn of events, a 9-year-old Minecraft enthusiast named MightyMikePLays67 accidentally spent $118,000 of his father's company credit card on YouTube promotion for his channel. Dave, the father, lost his job and is now facing the daunting task of repaying the massive bill within 30 days. Despite the grim situation, Dave remains optimistic, stating that he will continue working until he is at least 94 years old.

He refuses to accept external help like setting up a GoFundMe or cryptocurrency to repay the debt, opting instead to tackle the issue independently.
