This is a worthy cause, and I am a bit stunned at some comments here. This is how you help yourself, your neighbor, and your world. By helping ONE individual at a time.

.......I wish I could give more.

Edit: Here ya go. Both had their eyes covered like this for a long while. Man, were they tiny. No bigger than my hand..

I got to hand it to those in the NICU at Johns Hopkins.

Yep, my daughter spend the first three months of her life like that. The life that the rest of us take for granted every day is a slender thread to a preemie.

I understand that some may have an opinion about charities, etc. That's fine, but for the sake of courtesy, let's not turn this thread into that discussion.

That is good news. I worked on the prototypes for Datex Ohmeda's INO Vent which was used first in NICUs . The idea is that the Nitric Oxide is mixed with O2 so that the baby's can respirate and oxygenate at a much lower percentage than we could have even 10 years ago.

Done and done.

Money well spend.

Today the girls go for inguinal hernia surgery. I feel for them because I have been there and done that when I was 19 years old. Six weeks of sitting. I could do nothing and mean nothing.

After this surgery both should be 100%. Again, I have to credit the docs and nurses at Johns Hopkins.

Hey, you are over $200.00. That is great. Man, the wife would be hating it if she got to $999.99. She would still be locked up.

Good Job SS!

Wow good job !

This thing must be comming to a head I had no less that 6 requests from different clients in my email this morning

Keep it up !

GoldenRivet · 06-25-09, 08:23 AM

she still has a lot of immediate family and friends who have not donated.

I think they want to see her go in before they bail her out.

But August 5th is a long way from now... maybe its possible she will make bail before then ? who knows? if she tries hard enough

thanks ArcLight!

we appreciate subsims help and support!

Arclight · 06-30-09, 08:08 AM

BUMP

With over 6000 people passing through here daily, you'd think she would be there by now.

Cheapskates!

:rotfl: just kidding.

Emptied some more leftovers in my PayP account, and remembered to send the receipt info by mail this time.

AVGWarhawk · 06-30-09, 08:29 AM

So what's going on at this point, is she actually locked up?

GoldenRivet · 08-08-09, 01:27 AM

She went in on the 5th of August and they locked her up for a while.

Her primary goal was $1,000

Secondary goal was $500

once she surpassed the secondary goal amount of $500, the event was waning towards reaching its conclusion and she posted her bail

all total i think our community raised some $40,000+

area businesses volunteered their workers to go to jail... my wife was one of them. From her company i think there were 4 other people.

her bail amount was the highest from within her company.

I'm very proud to say that the subsim community made up about 60% of her total bail amount - if i sat to do the math im sure my estimate of 60% is on the low side.

well done guys... i can promise there is a child out there who is benefiting from that money as i post this.

EDIT: We didn't quite get 100 donations through subsim - but the donations we did receive through subsim were quite generous. Neal insisted that i not donate to subsim for each member who contributed as we had originally agreed - that instead i should donate the final tally to the March of Dimes... it was mighty big of him... but in the end subsim received a very modest contribution anyhow

GR, much love to you and your wife for this. While I didn't donate to this cause this time around (frankly I forgot), my wife and I have decided to donate to the Wisconsin chapter for this year and next. If there's any way we can give you and your wife credit for your hard work, please PM me with details and let me know.

In any case, good job with your valient support, and thank your wife for her participation! You both and your work represent the best of us all!

I'm glad to hear it went well, kudos to the jailbird.
