Hey guys:

I'm in for a ticket as well - but only if you can videotape John getting the Xbox :) I sure would like to see his face when you surprise him!


Btw: Not trying to be the spoilsport here, but I'd just like to point out that this raffle is not officially endorsed or undersigned by Mac Forums or iNet interactive.

(Not that they wouldn't endorse it, but just to make sure no-one is confused).

I want to tell everyone who has donated so far thank you so much for being a part of this, I went to bed at 3am last night trying to figure a way to raise more money to get this to happen....
I visited john last night and he was not feeling too hot... the treatment really wears him out, I promise to all of you that i will video the presentation of the XBOX to him for all of you to share the look he is going to have on his face. I have never felt so good feeling being a part of something so great that I know is going to make this little boy's painful life brighter.... A doctor told us once that the best medicine for John is happiness so if this little thing is going to help him fight this then Im going to do everything in my power to make it happen... I know Im thanking all of you alot but Im just so happy that people on these boards have taken time to help me make this happen... God Bless you all.... ;D

Here is where we stand on donations so far

$10.00 Cheesybanana (Mac-Forums)
$30.00 RIDE (Mac-Forums)
