Prayers and well wishes go out for your little girl and your family. Donation for the site is on the way BUT I have very limited use of the chat room now that java has moved on. I would very much like to participate in the chat and have enjoyed it a lot but I can no longer access it due to Java requirements. I need to run the latest releases of Java for my work and the chat room is not compatible with them. Is there some other chat software you could run that would not require java or run on current versions of Java?
Thanks
Paul

*update on myself.
I have been quite busy in the past 4 months away from this place. And many of you have noticed my lack of participation so I just wanted to throw out a quick update on myself. My fiancé gave birth to our wonderful daughter 4 months ago and she has taken up almost 24/7 of my time. She was born with a large number of birth defects and had to be in primary children's hospital for over 2 months. When she was born her Trachea and esophagus were not attached which allowed no food to be able to go to her stomach. She was flown immediately after birth to Primary children's in salt lake city where she underwent surgery to correct this. What an amazing hospital with an amazing staff! This people know there stuff! She has also has 2 heart conditions that will need repaired, and she was born deaf. She's a precious gift and its been quite the amazing experience to undergo something like this. She has a long road a head of her but she will do great and she is definably daddy's little princess. I've attached a few images of her. Thanks everyone for the great support!

Twice I got as far as being logged in and clicked the pay-now button on paypal, but the paypal window just goes white and won't reload. The payments don't get there.

Is there a direct paypal email I could use instead? PM me if necessary. Thanks

Put my check in the mail a couple of days ago. Should be over the top by the time it gets there. Hope others will continue so goal is exceeded by a comfortable margin.

This is just an "out of curiosity" inquiry - I know you have your new beautiful bundle of joy occupying a lot of your time right now, but I was wondering how long does it take to get ones membership status updated? I upped my status from Patron to Sponsor last month but haven't seen the change on my profile yet. There's no rush - like I said, just curious.
