Helping out my Mom
 

Thought about just putting this in the personal problems thread, but it's not really a personal problem, or whatever, but regardless: My mom's dog needs surgery for her legs, and we can't really afford it.

As such my sister started a gofundme page for it: http://www.gofundme.com/42veyw

I'm not necessarily asking anyone to donate anything, though if you could that'd be great. What'd also be great is just giving it more visibility with anyone you think might care. It's a lot of money to raise, and I come from a family of loners, so I doubt the ability to raise it just with our own personal networks.

Anyway: If you can help either with donations or just by posting it on facebooks/tumblrs/wherever, you have my, and my family's, gratitude. If not, that's cool too.

Man, this saddens me :< no lil poocher should be in pain like that. As it is I'm barely making ends meet, otherwise i'd toss a chunk o' dosh towards Mya.

I'll post it to where some folk i know might see this. Can't guarantee anything'll come out of it, though.

If you want, I can sticky this so more folks are likely to pay attention to it.

I understand! Five dollars is a lot of money. . .

Nah, but seriously, I get that. I hardly make any money myself and I've seen your employment issues.

Thanks for spreading it, though. The more people who see it, the more people who actually can afford to donate are likely to do so.

I actually have that power myself! I just didn't think to do it at the time. Probably wouldn't have, anyway, so as not to step on any toes, but if you're offering I'll just click the button.

ALSO: I have decided to make this a contest with my sister to see who has the better friends.

And not just because my friends are already $90 ahead of hers.

But, seriously, thanks a lot!

Mostly just bumping this. We're at about 5.5% of what we need, which isn't bad, but if any of you guys could share it more or even just toss in 5 dollars I'd be really grateful.

Pyros gets paid Friday, in the first time since forever, so remind me of this Fri-Sat, and I'll do my part. Hopefully I get paid this Friday, if not, I'm going to quit my job and STILL spot you $10 regardless.

kinda hard to share this with folks outside the US, but i know a couple of people who might be able to pitch in as well. Hope this works out well.

One leg? None?
 

I'd have probably bumped this but I kinda hate having to ask for money.
 

We've got a little over half of what we need to do one leg.
