Thank you, everyone, for your help

I'll start it......it's rough when your kids are sick. When my daughter was sick in the NICU when she was first born, i spent all my time there, lost my job and created a lot of debt. They told me she may not make it and i wanted to spend every waking hour with her.

He's in my prayers and my donation has been sent.

sent a 20 spot to start off with :thumbup he has a lot of traveling ahead of them so i hope we can help out, thoughts and prayers on the way too

I hope this will help.$25 from me and $25 from my family to yours God Bless. I hope that helps covers the gas for the trips, or whatever you need.

Very nice! Thank you, guys! :thumbup

$50 sent via paypal...Hope every thing works out for the best.


Tim.

w/o Tim's donation having gone thru just yet, and minus paypal's fees, we're already up to $134.74. I've always been proud about how everyone pulls together, and helps each other out, no matter where, when or why

Just sent $50 via Paypal. God knows he needs it more than I do, at least all of my family is healthy. I was wondering how I hadn't heard about this then I noticed the thread was in the pacific northwest chapter. Hope this helps.

I know this is just day one but i hope more ppl get in on this.

From experience in running one of these, i want to say something.

Don't let the big donations intimidate you if you are thinking about donating. The $100/$50 dollar donations are nice, but if you aren't capable of donating that much, it's highly understandable. When i was running one, the $5/$10/$15 dollar donations added up to a VERY high amount very quickly.

And once again, this person being in your thoughts and prayers may help out than any dollar amount ever may. God has mysterious ways of working things out.

Just wanted to put my $.02 in.

$40 sent from Paypal.

Best of luck Joe.

:twotu: :twotu:

Might want to consider moving his thread about his daughter and all the problems they're having from the Pacific Northwest section to the Anything else or Chit Chat section so more people will see it and know what's going on.

That's a good idea

Sent in 25 bucks. Forgot to take off the shipping stuff, what do I get? O_O

Nah...we'll see how my finances go. I lost my mom to cancer a few years back, and even if what his kid has isn't exactly cancer, its still pretty shitty. It shouldn't be a little kid that has a life ahead of her.

sent a few beans. i pray things turn out alright for the little one.

Thank you, everyone who's contributed so far. Right now, we're up to $288.59


I wish I could figure out how to do this, w/o paypal taking their 3% per transaction ...

you'd have to use a personal account, i run into the same problem using the FSB "business" account, they take a big chunk but i dont think the same fee applies to personal accounts, i could be wrong though

that figgers

I've always paid money..so...I have no clue what happens when receiving.

Call Paypal and ask them to "donate" back that 3%? It's worth a shot...good will towards its customers who use it.

Donations so far:
Rob K - $50 (bronco rob)
Joe C - $20
Larry P - $50
Robert K - $50 (rlkbob)
Derrick H - $40
Mark H - $20
Jacob S - $25
Alan T - $25

minus the paypal fees, that brings the total to $288.59. Once again, thank you everyone, and I do hope we can raise more, for Joe and his family

WTG:chili: :chili: :chili:

Update:

Tim O - $50

Thank you, guys! We all know that every little bit helps, and this is going to be another situation that proves it

I'll be pitching in as soon as my tax return arrives

Can i send you a check? if so pm me with a address.can't stand paypal.

Even as easy to use, as paypal is? Sure, you can send a check... you have a PM. Thanks!

I'm sure him and his family will really appreciate whatever we can throw together for them. I couldn't imagine being in their position.

Keep'r comin guys. :)

that figgers

That sucks.

Broncorob and RLKROB are totally right. Peeps should know about Joes little sweetie, she's a darling. And second, does not matter what you send, it all adds up, and that's what's needed right now.

Update:

Kelly H - $51.50 (thanks for compensating for paypal's fees!)

You guys are too cool. And to reiterate - every little bit DOES help, and it can add up quick

Does Joe even know about this??? Or is it being keeped in the dark

I think he knows... I had to ask him if he has a paypal account

Paypal has been sent.

Breaks my heart to see anyones child in a bad situation.

My thoughts and prayers are with you. I hope things continue to get better and better for you and your family. God speed.
