All I have is prayers to send out for Dana's beloved mother Leanna, Treva and I will keep her in our prayers and I would like to thank all the members here that can jump in and help Bless all of you, I have sold a couple of my guns in a hurry to take car of my loos of my brother and put bills on the back burner to take care of my little brother... Our prayers are sent out to her and to all that can jump in on helping, You are an angel Leanna for all you do for folks in need..... Bless all of you for what you have dun.
 
Hey Leanna we don't have a hell of a lot but try to help when we can. I sent small donation to Margaret's pay-pal. If I win key chain from DD I will send those funds also plus shipping to DD. Hope Margaret makes full recovery. You have been good friend to all FABO members and always jump in to help others. Thanks Bill
 
Hi all, Dana here. First off, thank you Leanna so very much for spearheading this all on your own. And to those who have kicked in to help my mother, I can't thank you enough, nor can my mother. She is still in the hospital and knows little of whats going on out here. What she does know has brought her to tears of joy. It's been tough for her like many out there. The loss of herb best buddy her dog, then several of the few friends left, and of course her husband. She was left with only $118.00 a month in S.S. at 73 she went back to work. She is a nose to the grindstone lady. And then just when she was somewhat keeping the lights on, this hit. It's now clear we must sell her home and figure a way to get her to Oregon. I have yet to figure out how to afford the move but hold faith it will work out thanks to you all, its giving me hope.
 
Bill thanks for the bid man . when leanna wants to set the end date works for me . You will hold off on shipping money intell i pull it and make it . thanks agin ...... Praryers sent
 
Asa, the other auctions are ending on November 22 so what do you say about giving your key chain a few extra days and ending it (and any other subsequent parts donations that may be made after this) on November 29 at 12:00 a.m. Central time?

Thanks again for keeping Margaret in your thoughts and prayers!! Ya'll ARE making a difference. :-D
 
Leanna can I put up the 75 $ gift certificate you owe me? If so it will go to the highest bidder,no reserve.

Sure Pete, if that's what you'd like to do. Everything is going to be a big help and deeply appreciated.

My own Gift Certificate and Hand Job soap auctions are ending in about three hours. There are links in my first post if anyone cares to bid or donate to the cause.

Thanks again FABO! I don't have a clue but hope we're all wearing out her paypal account. :-D
 
Not sure how I missed this but I sent a donation thru paypal. Hope this helps your friend.
 
love bucks, my mother calls them love bucks...he he he...My mother whom this is all for is totally blown away everyone. Currently her total in her paypal is $396.00 This is only $100 away from a friggin house payment!!!!!. Thank you everyone sooooooo much!!!! And this is one of the huge Keys to the whole thing. Keeping the house current until I can get it listed and sold as well as get her moved up here. I have no way of thanking all of you enough, nor does my mother. She got home for one day and has been told she has to go spend 2 weeks in assisted care due to the extent of injuries she has and her not being able to take care of herself currently. But during this one day at home she did get, I had her open her pp account and guys and gals, I can tell you, the first things she said in true Bill Cosby form,,,was...Oh my gosh......oh my..Dana,,,your not going to believe this...who are these people? They don't even know me!..and then the tears started flowing. She only has one hand now and is not able to type, but want's to very much say thank you from all of her heart, as well as mine. While this entire situation after the loss of my father has been a huge burden on myself and my mother,,as well as my family, it's a burden I'm proud to carry. I truly feel that one of the highest callings is to care for a parent when the time comes. And fellas,,,it's my time now,,,a bit sooner than planned,,,but it's here none the less. There is no way to be fully ready for this when it hits,,,but maybe,,,just maybe this dog attack turns out to be a good thing in the end,,,when it's all over she will finally be up here home where I have tried for years to get her. And this situation has pushed everything forward to NOW. And the help all of you have provided is keeping the lights on an allowing us to breathe a bit more easy, and that's something we need very badly right now. I could type for an hour,,as some of you guys know who know me, but it would do no good as there are no words my mother nor I can find to truly say thank you.
And to Leanna, my angel in red, you have been with me for years we have laughed, cried, bitched and everything else under the sun and will forever, I have no words either to send your way other than I love you, and thank you for all you do. Not just for me or my mother,,but for all those around you in your daily life and anyone you meet that you have and will help. You are truly one of God's great gifts,,,,and not just to look at either my dear.....muahahahahahaha.....
My mother wanted me to give a shout out to all who sent her some love Bucks via Paypal, but I really don't wish to post peoples names here on a public site without permission as most use a handle. But please know, she has the names and sends her love, kisses, hugs, and a few tears of joy for each of you. Also, you all should know she has spent her life helping people all around her all through her life, and prior to this situation, she was at 73 back to work caring for elderly doing in home care until the end for all of them to ensure they had good care, in their home and were never alone when their time came. Well everyone,,,,thank you as this is the first time she has had the table turned and she is blown away.....

Wow,,,I wrote a long one again...Raj and Jack are gonna nail me for this one if they see this....

Dana, thanks for the response from you and your Mom! Ya pretty much got Leanna pegged eh?? LOL. A treasure for sure. Give Mom a big hug and thanks for your service!

Steve
 
I love Margaret, she sounds like a super sweet lady!! Give her big hugs from all of us and let her know she is in our prayers!! Geof
 
Hmmm, WRB426's bid post was the only new one that showed up when I typed my response earlier today, but now there's more. Craig, Steve and Geof, thank you!!

Knowing that we've all worked together to help out a bit is enough thanks for me Dana. I appreciate you taking the time to share that though! :-D

I haven't signed in on FaceBook yet this morning ... but the last time I checked the bids on my auction items there was another $300 in yet-uncollected funds that will also be going into your mom's paypal account. :-D

FABO ... give yourselves a big pat on the back! You've all gone above and beyond the call here!!! Disneyland thinks it's got the title, but I have to disagree -- THIS IS THE GREATEST PLACE ON EARTH. Thank you one and all. << group hug >>
 
I will be sure to pass all the hugs to mom and well wishes to be sure. She is not a cheek pincher grannie but will grab your mug when its time for that kiss!!
She is a very special lady and has been an inspiration to all she meets as long as I've known her, but I'll tell ya everyone. She is very humbled by all the help, hugs, well wishes and prayers everyone is sending her way. She truly wishes there was a way to really say thank you but she can't quite reach the clouds for ya all.

If this pic uploads right, this is my mother taken awhile back at a friends house in Arizona. The other guy is a guy named Fred who is pretty much a squatter guy. Super cool dude old school cowboy. Mom heard that the county bought the land his little camp trailer was on and wanted it gone so she told him to put in on her property. Turns out half the town knows him but Mom got lucky to step up and offer the help even when she has nothing, she still finds room for others. This picture was taken a couple months after the loss of her husband my Dad. So there ya go everyone,,you can put a face to a name. This is the lady your all pitchin in to help out. Granted,,she is a bit more chewed up right now than in the pic.......

I hope your mom has a speedy recovery. Looking at the picture you can see the warmth and love she has to offer. Not everyone has that.
