Back by popular demand!!!

O.K. folks, so here goes....
When we placed the "donate button" on our website, we were overwhelmed with the amount of donations we received. After a mere 24 hours, we had more than enough to go to the medical conference and we are THRILLED!!! Overwhelmed, actually!!! (Did I mention yet that we were overwhelmed... he he)
  I took the donate button off because we had reached our goal and didn't want to be "taking anyone's money" so to speak.
  A lot of people have been asking where the button went and how they can donate... so after much persuasion from very good friends, I have decided to add the button to the side of my blog. With the stipulation that nobody "feels" that they have to donate or contribute. And, the other stipulation is that all moneys will be used for medical type expenses. No trips to Hawaii, etc...
  so, there it is.....
Lots of love from Christa
p.s. I am recovering nicely from last Thursday's surgery in case you were wondering. Life is good and one whole week off of chemo meds to recuperate!! Yipppeee!!!

Thank you for putting the button back!!!!!! some of us might have been looking for it and would have been reduced to snail mailing a check, but paypal is much easier! so again, thank you!

I don't know about the rest of your readers, but if you feel a trip to Hawaii might be needed, go for it. Remember as we take care of our physical and spiritual needs, we also need to make surburb memories. Just being a loyal reader I don't think you could/would do this, but my vote is for YES.

So glad you put it back up!! I wanted, so bad, to donate, but that was right when I was stuck at the hospital with the baby, so I didn't get a chance...we definitely want to contribute to the cause, and I agree with Cinoda, Hawaii is very healing!!! (I might be a little partial though... :P) Love ya!! Thanks for being one of my most treasured heroes!!

I am a loyal reader too, I don't usually comment either on peoples blogs but I had to. You do what you feel is right and enjoy your life. Don't feel guilty about anything you deserve it. I've never met another person with such a positive outlook in my life. I always read your blog and I share your life experiences with my family as well. Enjoy
