[...] I’m finding myself rather speechless.

Yesterday, Lori & I came back from our emergency 5-day “decompression” break to find that the entire cost of our trip (which we wondered how we would pay for even as we were attempting to relax,) had pretty much been taken care of by the generous donations of our good friend Darren Rowse and his loyal readers at ProBlogger.net.[...]

Help Out a Dog Lover

You might remember, last week I told you about the cute dog pictures at flickrDogs.com. Well, Cary and his wife Lori could use your help.
Lori has cancer and writes about it on her blog Too Sexy for My Hair. In addition to flickrDogs, Cary writes…

Tris has a buttton on his site we did for this blogger. It would be great if more people used it to help spread the word.

I agree with the sentiments above…move the PayPal button to a more noticeable location. I wish them the best of luck!

Darren,

My wife has done two posts about Cary and Lori.

I’ll link here and you can remove these if you need to.

Maybe they’ll help someone make a decision about donating or not.

Darren – In response to your email plea, I just donated on Cary’s site. I second the idea of more obvious “donate” button. Perhaps you could set something up on problogger and pass the donations along.

I’m off right this minuite the sites in questions to help out a little – I truly believe that if we are successful in our business ventures we have to give a little back.

Sometimes seeing this, life just sucks!!! But what about Lori’s spirit in the face of such adversity!!! Puts it all into perspective – we should never ever moan again about silly things.

There’s also a PayPal donate button at the Cancer NewsWatch site – it’s way down below on the left sidebar – Darren, maybe you can let them know to not be so modest and place the button above the fold.
