Ok, Larry had taken Deanna to see her family. I just got an email from Steve, the guy pretty much heading things up down here. He wanted me to pass on a note to you. I couldn't think of a way to word things better, so I thought I'd just post up the letter he sent me.

Danny,
I just wanted to let you know that I saw Larry this morning and he and Deanna made it home. The main reason that Larry stopped was to tell me that he had a couple of deposit slips in the mail that added over $2,000. I know and now he knows that most every penny came from your sight. This has picked up Deanna's spirits so much that unless you get to see her, you just wouldn't believe it.
Please write up a little thank you from her for all that have helped so far. I will know more in a couple of days and will pass the information on to you. Thanks again and I hope you had a happy Birthday.

Steve

Steve, consider it passed on.

Sorry I have not read this site in a while otherwise I would have sent the $50. 00 sooner. I wish I could send more, but I am also helping a very close friend, who just lost her husband in a motorcycle crash in Waterford, Michigan on 08-24-2000. The crash was 1 month and 1 day before their 1 year aniversary. He was only 31 years old, And about $650k in debt in starting his own business that she is stuck with trying to sell off and get the vultures off her back, and people trying to rip her off in buying equip.
Hopefully this will help, along with all the other donations to give the Haines story a happy ending.
Hopefully all the donations I have read on this post will help make this a happy ending.
Keep the good news coming.

Rollercoaster Ride

FIRST: Once again, thanks all of ya'll for what you've done. I saw Larry Monday, and he wanted to truly express their gratitude to each and everyone of you for your donations, thoughts and prayers. He wanted to once again say how much it means to them for people they don't even know to go out of their way to help, and to care about what is going on in their lives. As passed on earlier, what ya'll have done here has boosted Larry and Deanna's spirits immeasurably.

Saw Larry on Tuesday. The latest rounds of tests have come back and it's not good news. The cancer is definitly malignant, and is located on the portal (sp) vein. What this means is the transplant will not be possible now. They are waiting to hear from MD Anderson medical center on possible alternative treatments, possibly chemo or radiation, I'll let you know what the docs say as soon as I hear.
The bills are starting to roll in from all these trips to the doctor, so all of ya'lls donations are really going to help, even though the transplant now appears to be ruled out. I cannot imagine the rollercoaster ride of hope and let down these folks are going through. As bad as I feel about the situation, still, it's not the same as if it were me or MY wife that I was going through this with. I don't think there is anyway to truly know what a situation like this is like unless you've been through it yourself. Those of you who pray, I ask that you really remember these folks, they need your prayers now more than ever, and please feel free to post a note that you will be remembering them, it would mean alot. Any of you who still want to donate, like I said, doctors don't work for free so please do so.
Sorry for the bummer post, but ya'll have been so super for these folks that I felt obligated to update you on their situation.

 

[willyslover]

Danny. . I wish there were more we could do for these folks... my thoughts and prayers remain with Deanna. . God bless them both.

[danandamy]

Willyslover, what all of ya'll have done so far is already more than I ever imagined. Like I said before, just the thought that folks who don't even know them care enough to send donations and post these notes of encouragement has meant more than I can express to ya'll.
I'd also like to express a note of gratitude to the TDR Website gurus who allow us the leway to have ALL kinds of topics over here, and who leave the site open for discussions outside of the narrow field of diesels only. It can lead to some very good things, as has occured here.

I don't ever come over to this site.
I am very sorry to hear about what
has happened. Are they still accepting
the donations to that address on page
#1? If so, Sharon and I will send
$100. 00 to it right away.

Thanks.

 

[willyslover]

John_p... please do... the account will accept it with no problem. .

danandme,
Haven't been to the site for a while, I'm very sorry to hear about Mrs. Haines. Had my own scare early this year, thought I had liver cancer, but luckily for me it was only some abnormal blood vessel growth. My prayers are with you! God Bless you all for helping out Deanna. My $150 is on it's way.

$100 on its way.....

 

[Power Wagon]

The page to use your credit card instead of sending a check is at www.my2kcity.com/deanna for your convenience. If you do not presently have a PayPal account, you can sign up and if you give them my email as a referring person, both you and I will get a $5 bonus. I'll give mine toward the fund, and if you're so inclined, you can email yours to me to be donated as well. That's $10 without a dime out of your pocket at all!

 

[John_P]

danandme or willyslover:

Thanks for answering my post on the
account. We will get the $100. 00
check in the mail by no later
than Tuesday. I will let you
know when I've sent it.

Thanks.

My time is limited, but I have set aside time and built a web page for making donations via credit or debit card. Unfortunately, I have been having some difficulty with PayPal - they are experienceing some odd technical glitches.

I should have it up to day, and I will post a new thread here when it's going.

My Prayers are going upward and the check is inward bound for this unfortunate Lady.
God has blessed Me #ad
, It's time to spread that around!

Danandme,
Please pass info on to Larry and Deanna. My sister has cancer and was told Saturday that it's terminal. When researching options, my wife came across this article in Womans World magazine (10-03-2000) about a lady in Fla who was in a simliar situation. After all treatments had failed, her Dr. got approval from ImClone Systems Inc. (the manufacturer) and the FDA to test the new drug "C-225" on her. It's an antibody that when used in conjunction with chemo, latches on to cancer cells, blocking the switches that make tumors grow. Her treatment was successful and within 5 months she was finally cancer free. The article goes on to site other forms of cancer that are now being looked at for testing.

I hope your able to use this information. I'm headed to California in two weeks to be with my sister. I am praying for you and your wife.
