I agree that setting up a fund would be terrific(in my department we call it the "sunshine fund" but maybe here we could call it something like the Island fund. I would like to contribute as well.

Travis, thanks for your update. Sounds like some good news and some iffy news. I hope the leeches work and I imagine it's a good thing that Christine's not really awake to see them! My thoughts and prayers are with you and I'm glad that you are there for your mom.
