Re: Teleman: get well soon!
Sorry TMan! I hope the ice hasn't claimed another victim, I'm still walking off a brutal hit on my left buttock from last week's fall on the ice.

Re: Teleman: get well soon!
From what I heard, were talking several broken ribs and brain trauma. So Canna, you don't deserve your own thread just yet! How does chipping in for a gift sound or is that outta line?Cannatonic wrote:Sorry TMan!

Re: Teleman: get well soon!
The Teleman gofundme operative is ongoing and a few of us here have already contributed. I am in charge of the thing myself so its in good hands (or so I believe!). Thanks for helping out if you can.

Are you sure he couldn't use the cash? Medical expenses can be tough for anybody.

Re: Teleman: get well soon!
Al is right, here in the States medical expenses are huge. That being said, I made a small donation. I trust you Ben to make decisions on the best use of cash. If more is required shoot me a PM.

Re: Teleman: get well soon!
Good point guys. As soon as I manage to get in touch with either Bruce or his family, I will let them decide what to do with what we have to offer. Keep in mind if ever it does not work out, I will get all the money back to each of you. Take care.

Re: Teleman: get well soon!
yikes, it's serious, I'm very sorry to hear about this accident. Hard to believe something like this could happen to Bruce, being such a hardened mountain man with daily sking and all.
Changing the fundraiser to cash is a great idea, thanks again for doing it.
