Thanks to all for the effort and moral support for forum member @jabba .
Together we raised $3.5k of the $7k needed to cover the deductible for Mrs. Jabba's kidney transplant. His auctions on Great Collections will most likely cover the rest.
Every single member deserves a hearty cheer for supporting jabba in his time of need. I have received numerous PMs from him with stories of cash donations, auction results, fundraising thread, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, moral support. Never in my life have I ever spoken to someone so appreciative than Dave. He never asked for any of this; it simply came about. You all truly made a difference and helped a family in need. This outpouring of generosity was PRICELESS!
Three cheers for all of you! HIP HIP HUZZAH! HUZZAH! HUZZAH!

well done!
What a blessing for jabba. Priceless.
@Lazybones .... That is fantastic. I have known Lazybones for a long time... way before his membership here.... and he is a standup guy.... always willing to help others. This is a classic for him. Cheers, RickO
My pleasure. Glad I could be of service!
We should have been able to blow past that $7000 mark.
**Apparently I upset some people and they reported me to the Moderator who asked me to delete some of this post. **
In fact, Jabba has stated in another forum that some people contacted him to accuse him of being deceitful. Talk about kicking someone when they are down. Shameful.
To the members that did participate and donate I salute you and I will remember you always! Great job!
Lazybones, you are a very special person and Jabba is lucky to have you as a friend. Big shout out to you my friend. You are one class act!😎
My wife and I were very happy to help. I’m a bit surprised no one bought the lot I offered but I didn’t let that stop me from helping in other ways. I hope it’s one less burden to carry during these difficult times.
Actually, I just got off the phone with @SurfinxHI and he said he'd take them!

@Lazybones And a big round of applause to you buddy for bringing it to our attention and organizing this whole thing. Well done! Well done!
"I spent 50% of my money on alcohol, women, and gambling. The other half I wasted.
@Lazybones that is awesome! I’ll get the package ready to ship as soon as I can and get the address.
Thank you for helping out brother, @jabba. I and I’m sure all of us here wish David and his family the very best this world has to offer.
@Lazybones you are, without question, da man.
Thank you for a job well done 👍
There are a lot of good people here on the forums. Some of us have been in similar situations, as I have shared with Jabba - my wife got my left kidney 21 years ago on 27th March.
@Lazybones we really appreciate your help you sir are a selfless person this had taken a ton of stress of me and my wife’s shoulders I want to thank everyone who participated this family is priceless
Thank you all!
