Thank you for letting us know how you both are. Have you been able to contact your sister?

If anyone comes up with a way to help, please post it.

Hang in there, Bambi & Tim. Reading posts on MR don't usually make me tear up, but this news has been an exception to that rule.

Best of luck with the insurance companies, too.

I vote that we determine who the closest person is to Tim and Bambi and let them play point for the shipping of any supplies, gift cards (everyone needs stuff from grocery stores and walmarts in times like this) and that way we can be sure that they get to her.

If she can actually get mail somewhere, we could also just send direct. Perhaps Betty or someone who can actually contact her could coordinate the best things we could send to help her out. I know international shipping isnt feasible for alot of you, but those of us in the domestic US can definitely pitch in.

Just my two cents, and if someone has better ideas, please post them!

Target has gift registries and probably Walmart does as well. They're not just for babies and weddings anymore. Someone can set up a registry once we have a list of what's needed. Gift cards can be put on the registry as well.

What about a PayPal donation button? $ is always necessary in times like this and insurance sure doesn't pay for everything.
