Oh I am so happy for Anthony and Nicolette and the Moderators! Wow!

I got a little teary about this... that is not an easy thing to accomplish, trust me when I say that. I'm a little taken back by it all.

Well @anthony I watch you work tirelessly day after day using the word 'work' trying to come up with ways to cover the costs of this forum. This is my way of demonstrating how much I love you :inlove: - and I thank everyone who's jumped on board and supported the cause. You've been at this coming up to 10 years in September and it's the least everyone can do in return for your dedication and commitment in tirelessly assisting people who suffer or support people who suffer this debilitating condition. You deserve a little break from the ongoing monthly stress and members gain the assurance that the forum will be here for the next 12 months. Win - Win :D

Anthony and Nicolette,

I have gained so much out of this site, and meet a lot of new people who suffer from the same issues as myself. I am glad to help when ever I can and I am sorry it's taken this long to step up and do some helping for this site. People have no idea of the emotional roll a coaster ride that we ride on. One minute I am fine as if nothing happened next minute a heap in the corner unable to move or talk. The people I have meet on this site have been amazing and are some of the most wonderful people who suffer in silence mostly unable to tell people how they really feel. A lot of the time for fear of being judged.

I thank you both and the staff that help run this site so much, it has been a life saver for me.

Good night all. 11pm here and I need to get some sleep.

It would be nice to see some $1.00 donations from those who use this resource and can spare a little to keep it online for the next 12 months.

Thanks everyone. :) Awesome effort in the last day and a bit.

Good morning :) Pleasing to see some more donations over night. We are getting to the final bend and nearly on the home straight. I now choke up with the picture in my mind that I can soon go running to Anthony and say ' we did it' as like he said, for him it's a HUGE achievement considering for almost 10 years, month after month he has had to worry about the current month's server costs let alone the next. This is soooo exciting.

 

[Nicolette]

I'm so impressed and grateful... :cool:

@Nicolette I noticed that we are approaching the ten year anniversary of the forum. I feel like it is so appropriate that we should have this drive in 2015, its tenth year running. I am so grateful to those who have donated, and I look forward to keeping it up.

Thank you to all who have donated today, and ever. :)

I'm off to work.... pleasing update before I go. Every dollar, even one a hour would get us there!
