    Jake, if they do show up.... you just keep them for yourself! I am certain that no one would mind that. No one has participated here in order to 'win' a prize, but rather to support a brother in need. Maybe whoever was sending them knew your contest deadline and delayed it so that you would just get them! :) P.S. I AM SERIOUS...KEEP THEM!

    I appreciate that but part of all of this was to say thanks and give something back for all of your support. Trust me when I say guys have bombed the crap out of me and I am not short of cigars at all. I really wish I could send every single person who donated, said a prayer, or just reached out with friendship a box of cigars. I can never put my gratitude in words. My daughter is doing great and that is all that really matters to me. Tonight we took her to Disney on Ice for Girl Scouts night and we made some memories. Every moment like this means so much more to me now. I am blessed to still have her and for all the amazing friends I have.

    Beautiful sentiment, Jake. That is what it's all about. Nothing more important than family and friends, and we are all blessed to be able to support you and yours. Enjoy all those precious moments with your wife and your kids.

    I was going to have my daughter draw names on vherf tonight but I am headed out the door for work. I have the names together and ready for her to draw. She will draw names tonight still and tape a name on each prize. I will post a list of the winners tomorrow afternoon. Thank you everyone for your support. I will post how many entries we had as well.

    I might suggest if you've won... Offer to paypal shipping costs... This could easily be over $100 worth of shipping there...

    Jake, they arrived today. Thank you very much. I'll be sending a thank you package in the next couple weeks. I should had just had you open it and take and take a hand full before you sent them

    Wait, so who won his daughter?
  • ejgormanejgorman Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 891
    Received today! Many thanks Jake! And, most importantly, thanks for letting us all be a part of this!

    My daughter had more tests today and her blood work was all at normal levels. Since they ruled out all sorts of viruses being the actual cause they are going to run some genetic tests in July. They have to wait until her body has replaced all the donor blood she received which they said takes about 3 months. I initially thought they discovered the virus that caused this but I misunderstood. They just identified a virus she was sick with after the fact but did not lead to this blood disorder. She is doing well and we thank you for the ongoing support and prayers.

    Encouraging update, Jake. We'll keep praying for definitive answers and a complete resolution. So glad she's feeling better!
