Well, I must say I was surprised to see a post referencing my ill-fated and famous(!?!) plea for $10 donations, but it got my attention and I just made a $50 donation. Thanks for the reminder. It has been awhile since I made my last donation.

It has been more than 5 1/2 years since Heather died and I don't visit these forums much anymore. I come here tonight with a request for a friend. I'm going to start a new thread, because it isn't pertinent to this one about donating, but I had to comment on this. I didn't know my name was still known around here. It was a bit of a shock to see this post with my name near the top.

Anyway, my son's best friend was just diagnosed with esophageal cancer a couple weeks ago. I told his wife to check the forums for info here, but I see that esophageal cancer isn't addressed here. So I'm wondering if anyone knows of any good sites devoted to this type of cancer.

Now I'm going to post this in a new thread also.

Charm, thanks for the notoriety! wink

And David, thanks for your generosity (in more ways than one). grin
