Mike Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 lol! when my gf and i first got together about four years ago, i did indeed live in my car. there's a whole story there, but that's neither here nor there. //donateplease the goal is only 500 and they're ore than 50% there. just fyi, my bank account had 11 bucks in it before making this donation so to quote aj, "if phillyb can kick in $5, surely..." YOU CAN TOO! Set up a Fund PhillyB account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunny Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 You're a good man PhillyB. The goal I set really means nothing. They just made me enter one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillyb Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 i know...i had a friend recently go through a grueling litigation process for years regarding his neighbor and a gas spill on the property. he set up a gofundme "account" or foundation or whatever and has a huge goal. i was surprised to see such a low goal for this fund. any idea the actual cost of medical bills?

Dunny Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 This is just a small piece of the puzzle. There are 3 seperate fundraising socials going on at home tonight. I don't fly home till tomorrow so I thought I'd try to do something. I'll probably donate more at the end to make it a round number as I would have likely spent a small fortune if I was at home tonight. lol As for medical bills, I don't know the number. Care is free but meds are only subsidized here and last I heard they were well over $1000/month. Factor in travel, accomodation and lost wages and they've just been ground down over the past months. I recently spent 10 days in a neo-natal icu and between the expenses I mentioned above it cost me over $4000. That was ten days!!! I'm scared to think what theirs look like. The lost wages are the killer. Eric is a proud guy, this wouldn't be happening if they didn't need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunny Posted July 23, 2014 Author Share Posted July 23, 2014 I've been on a 4 week bender but a hardy heart felt thank you to you guys. They raised over $90,000 for the family. Lilah is actually doing fantastic and has been taken off the donor list for the time being. The family is still stuck living 2 separate lives for hospital purposes for a while but generally all great news!! You're good people, and there aren't nearly enough in the world.
