For Allan

[Emily65Roses]

Not long ago, I put a link to your website in my AIM profile. Then I made an away message about your page, and put the link in that. I just thought you might like to know that...
At least 2 of my non-CF friends have sent in donations, Lauren and Casey. Casey also put the link in her profile. My cousin Cindy also donated. And a post-transplant CFer from my old college, Tash, sent in a donation and put the link in her profile too.

Everybody spread the link around! I didn't think it would work outside my CF circle of friends. But people are giving me some faith in humanity, and actually giving a damn. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> <img src="i/expressions/heart.gif" border="0">

Allan, can you post your site and the newspaper articles again. I sent it around to all of my friends and family a few months (maybe weeks????) ago and I'd like to do it again.

Thanks

There's also <a target=new class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.wral.com/news/5129014/detail.html">this WRAL (local news) story that aired two nights ago</a>.

In other news, also on the same channel, the reason Medicaid can't afford my transplant:

<blockquote>Quote<br><hr><a target=new class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.wral.com/health/5129321/detail.html">Sex Offenders Get Tax-Funded Viagra</a>
A survey by The Associated Press earlier this year showed nearly 800 convicted sex offenders in 14 states received erectile dysfunction drugs filled by Medicaid.<hr></blockquote>

Allan,
I've had a link to your site in my AIM profile for a few weeks and I know at least one random friend of mine donated too. The internet is a wonderful thing.
