It's not easy being you, but you sure do a good job of it.

Hang in there, Dave. You inspire alot of people to do good things.

Sorry, she is in good hands with OHSU, they saved our son's life when Salem Memorial couldn't. I was thinking of doing an auction of some of our product for a donation for Doernbecher.

I lost my mother to breast cancer when she was only 50.
I'm glad to help your fight to find a cure.

I lost my mom when she was only 36 years old due to breast cancer. She was so young that they never thought to test for it when she got sick. By the time they finally found it, it was way too late. I was only 8 when she was diagnosed, and 9 when she died. She officially (by their best guess) got breast cancer in 1985, but wasn't actually diagnosed until 1988. She was given 2 months at that point, but she held on for 16 months. She finally passed away one week after my 9th birthday. It was a bitch. I am the current high bidder, I bid $100, but you got $100 coming to you whether I win the auction or not. Thanks Dave, if one person goes in for early testing and stops the cancer, one mother, one sister, or whatever, it will be more than worth it. What is money anyways, I urge everyone to donate. Bid on the auction, or Paypal a donation, we can help people, lets do it!

My thoughts are with ya Buddy.
You couldn't have chosen a better place to receive the charitable donation. OHSU gave my late wife an extra 7 years (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

Thank you, everyone.


I met this lady, my wife's grandma, only 8 months prior to being diagnosed with ALS. She had already beaten cancer once. Mimi took a liking to me immediately. The whole family did (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) . Then when I got sick, it became our "thing" in common. She has had cancer come back 3 times since she has known me.

Its time for some answers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

Thanks madd dogg. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif)
If you give me your address, it would be my pleasure to send you a Nevada 'PORSCHE' license plate. I am very sorry about the loss of your mom. I know what a big empty spot you have to live with.

Thanks a bunch, John (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) AWESOME of you...

We were down visiting Mimi since Thursday. We had a family meeting to "request" or "divy-up" (sp?) the larger pieces of furniture as inheritence. It was wierd (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) .

All I have to leave behind are cars. Broken and apart, but still priceless (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
