Re: [Felvtalk] Donations
all the what if's can torment almost more than their dying. like you said, it never goes away, just is less painful. hopefully, some day they will find a cure for this and other horrible diseases. dorlis Lynne [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Dear Sue, I am so sorry for your sadness but I understand.

Re: [Felvtalk] Donations
What I really meant was that I, personally, would save up in my own Buzzy Fund. Yours would probably be a BooBoo Fund. I have been thinking all day that I would like to ask the people who give me Christmas gifts to donate to my Buzzy Fund instead of giving me a gift. I am 51 years old and I sure don't need another ill fitting sweater or gim-crack, but I would be so happy to be able to give to the kitties in any possible way... I could also add to a change jar, or put money in that I receive by cutting hair on the side. So many different ways that might add up to something that would help. If I knew in my heart that I was doing it because of my darling Buzzy it would make me feel somewhat better. Most of us have lost our own beloved Buzzys over the years. I think my first Buzzy fund donation will go to James as Jane suggested. The idea is still too young to decide what to do beyond that. Like I mentioned before, I have no idea what the expenses of this list are, and maybe the best place to donate my Buzzy Fund would always be here.

That's exactly what I thought you meant Sue, that the Buzzy fund money would go to James. That's what I meant by being happy to donate to it, ie James. OK so I will call mine BooBoo's fund. : )If James is willing to contact us, perhaps we can do something about helping maintain this wonderful site.
