Are you wealthy, so wealthy that spending $1000.00 for a night out and not give it a second thought? Do you know 36 others that could help without it affecting their lives to much. I keep hoping I can get Laser Surgery to fix my neck to take away my chronic pain and get my life back. Now I am a major burden to my wife and kids.

Haven't posted for awhile, yet it's probably a good thing for you people! Today went shopping with wife. I'm so torn up drugged up and screaming about it! Stopped posting at Twit it was a waste of time. Have no clue how to get donors. If I didn't have my family I would give up!

Totally unsure about what not to do next.

2009-10-12T13:55:00.000-07:00

Woke up took pain pills and went back to bed. My wife wanted to go to store yet there was too many people. Good News! Totally unsure about what not to do next. Twit, play freebe poker watch last nights tv shows. Let me know when I've decided something. Gonna watch Superboy (smallville) Have to wait a couple of hours to take more meds. My kids are no longer afraid of me. I can tell them no yet I haven't found a threat that I can follow up on

Back to a normal day!

2009-10-10T11:57:00.000-07:00

Yeah back to a normal day, drugs are working, got alot of pain free sleep. I don't think I'll be going anywhere for awhile.

HERE'S THE STORY

2009-10-09T22:25:00.000-07:00

Nine O Nine no let up today! Need to double up again, it's a good thing I have extras. Here's the story!

About nine or ten years ago I started suffering neck pain with massive headaches. I was told that I had degenerative arthritis of the bones in my neck. After 2 neck fusions I was pain free for 2 whole wonderful years, then my pain returned I went back to the doctors and they told me that they couldn't help! A year later I went back and they told me that they couldn't help.

It's been six years now, I'm having one of the worst days so far...

1 year ago I happened upon Laser Spine Institute had my last MRI and sent it to them. They said that I'm a candidate for their procedure yet they do not accept Medicaid The estimated cost to go to Florida for their 5 day procedure is $35000 and for travel and lodging etc $2000 that is way more than my yearly salary before I had to quit, I was devastated and suicidal. Then it occurred to me that if 37 amazing people could donate $1000 each I could get my life back. So far it's 0/37 and I hope to get to 37/37. My guess is that their must be 37 people or businesses that can donate a $1000 without any pain. I totally understand that this is bad timing with job loss numbers getting worse day by day. So far I've contacted alot of the well known businesses their line is that the only donate to worthwhile charities. So I asked the major charities to help and their line is they don't help individuals ... Usually I have about an hour a day before my morning medications kick in to spend my time begging for help from strangers. My family wife and 11yr girl and a 10yr old boy need a full time father & husband. Not a broken worthless burden. I hide in my dungeon so they don't have to watch my suffering.

Prayer and Angels

2009-10-09T16:37:00.000-07:00

Most people would go to the doctor if they we're in sever pain all the time! If I went they'd give me narcotics and I'd be throwing up. Really into prayer and Angels lately maybe on their breaks from helping others they could do something to help!

NO JOY!

2009-10-09T14:15:00.000-07:00

Woke up with a massive headache, took pain pills, no joy

If I stand around and be careful not to move my neck I get a bit of relief

Yet still in pain when standing, guess I have to double up

Please if you happen to see this blog please try to help!

That would be a miracle!

2009-10-08T20:05:00.000-07:00

You & I both know that very few if any people will read this

of those who do read this and help and or donate that would be a miracle,

amazing even. Now I hoping to find 37 Amazing People to donate and give me back my life!

Please help end this daytime nightmare!

2009-10-06T14:25:00.000-07:00

Went with wife out to Big Lots, they already have Christmas Decorations for sale.
I'm all torn up and have to wait to take pain meds.... yikes! Probably have to go grocery shopping tomorrow! Did you know that I only have to find 37 people to donate $1000. Please help end this daytime nightmare!

Am I Dreaming?

2009-10-01T16:15:00.000-07:00

Unsure about everything lately sort of need a fairy godmother to sort out reality. Anyone know where I can get one? Raised dose of Amitriptyline now I'm sleeping until Noon. I'm not complaining sleep is good sleep = no pain. I was still in bed when I took my everyday pills. Maybe my fairy god mother can find 37 Amazing donors so I can have my life back, untill that happens I'm caught up in this confusing Nightmare

Clueless

2009-09-25T13:31:00.000-07:00

I have no choice but to beg from strangers. I could be out of pain and not drugged up if I can raise $37k So I am hoping to find 37 Amazing people who could donate $1000 each!

A very worthy cause!!!

2009-09-25T08:40:00.000-07:00

I wish who ever was beating me the sledge please finish the job. Damn can't think of anything to say. Please support the campaign it's a very worthy cause!!

2009-09-24T20:09:00.000-07:00

Trying to raise the funds for Laser Surgery is a real pain.
Yet it is not as Painful as the Chronic Pain I live with daily!
My family deserves to get an active father
37 people donating $1000 each could be amazing!

Looking for the off button!

2009-09-23T13:18:00.000-07:00

Reality Bites, Life Sucks, my mother died of cancer when I was 15. I'm trying hard to survive for my family yet some days I just feel like pressing the off button. I beg daily to find Thirty-Seven amazing people that are willing to donate $1000. I really need help with my fund razing!

Tagged with Kryptonite!

2009-09-23T00:21:00.000-07:00

Thought I was going to get some sleep, guess again! Who ever invented pain should be shot. No joke! If we're voting I vote NO. I have decided that having sever pain on a daily basis is wrong and who ever made this should be outcast-ed So If you know who's responsible please let me know! No way should anyone have to suffer like this. I don't know how to explain it's like when superboy gets tagged with Kryptonite I often compare it to having 4inch nails pounded into my brain at different angles. Gosh writing about my pain is probably making it worse.........

Surprize Me!

2009-09-22T14:01:00.000-07:00

Gave in and went to Wal-Mart with my wife, finally home now YEAH! I still hopeful that I might find 37 amazing people that $1000 would not affect their lives (except they'll get and Amazing Thirty-Seven T-Shirt as thanks)

Considering the Alternative

2009-09-20T13:33:00.000-07:00

Considering the Alternative
By Gene Davis

`I am on my own, the few people that I know that could donate and not really affect their lives have ignored my efforts when I beg for help from strangers the feeling of being worthless really hits home. Everyday it's a struggle to not consider the alternative.

A few years back I used to have good days, now I have about an hour a day before my chronic neck and head pain kicks in and if I haven't already taken my pain and mood pills I am in for a real bad day.

The real kicker is that I know I could be fixed, they do minimally evasive surgery where they remove my arthritic bone spurs that dig into my neck.

Since I am considered disabled Medicaid will not cover the cost. The problem for the past year I have known that their is a way I could get out of pain. This has given me a glimmer of hope, so I spend my hour a day trying to beg from anyone I can think of ....

All of the major charities do not help individuals, so I would have to come down with a major disease in order to get any help. I have slowly been preparing my wife and kids to get by without me, today they are out at the Interstate Fair a venue that my family would have made me go before today.

As my hope fades away I am considering the alternative.

Less Hope Than Yesterday :(

2009-09-19T23:51:00.000-07:00

I hate it when I feel like giving up! I just wish I could see some hope. If you can not donate, please post this blog to everyone you know! I really am a burden on my family, I hide all day in my bedroom so my family doesn't have to watch me suffer. Anyway I need all the help I can get.

Less Hope Than Yesterday :(

Please donate today!

2009-09-17T07:16:00.000-07:00

Please give what you can and ask everyone u kn0w too do the same! Help me get my life back! I hate being a worthless invalid! I have an hour or so to get anything done before I have to get medicated once medicated I do not function.

2009-09-16T16:56:00.000-07:00

Please Help!

2009-09-15T19:14:00.000-07:00

6+yrs of Chronic Pain has drained all my hope of having a pain and drug free life! Sent MRI to the Laser Spine Institute and they say that I am a candidate for their procedure. I am begging for help from everyone I can think of .....

I need $1 from 37000 or $10 from 3700 or $100 from 370 or $1,000 from 37 donors that join our campaign to get needed Laser Surgery

Anyone know about The Amazing Thirty-Seven?

2009-09-12T16:14:00.000-07:00

Become one of the Amazing Thirty-Seven!

Today has been very hard pills not working!

My daughter wants her friend to come for a sleep over.

I had to tell her no (about 20 times) I really could use some good news.

I know it's rude to ask for money from strangers yet I have no other options,

so donate $1.00 and ask 37000 of your friends to do the same.

OUCH !

2009-09-12T13:31:00.000-07:00

My brain feels like its about to explode! Pills not working again. Please Help.

How can you help?

2009-09-12T07:12:00.000-07:00

Asking people to donate to our fund is an emotional endeavor, yet I have no choice
It is very hard to suffer daily when you know that you could be fixed. If I wasn.t married with children I would have ended this nightmare yrs ago! Please donate what you can and ask your friends and family to do the same.

Shout out to Twitterland!

2009-09-11T23:42:00.000-07:00

UPDATE

Here's an Idea! The next time your with a group of peers, pass the hat around ask them to ask their family and friends to donate. My family really needs an active father instead of the invalid I've become. Apparently they can use miminaly evasie opertion to remove the bone spurs causeing my current sever chronic pain. Medicade won't cover the costs. Please donate and ask others to help also. Truley as soon as the costs are covered and I am no longer in pain I can again provide for my family. The quickest way this could happen is for you to Become One of the Amazing Thirty-Seven!

Obama's Health Care Won't Help!

Obama to busy to help!

2009-09-09T19:48:00.000-07:00

Obama to busy to help!

I emailed the President and he basicly wrote me back saying how busy he was fixing America.
In my reply I told him that the only thing I can think about is raising the big bucks for my operation.
Maybe he will ask one of the scruff to see if they can get this ball rolling, I'm pushing as hard as I can and it barely moved!

Don't text and drive!
