Mike has given a lot to the Pontiac world, it's time we show our appreciation. I hope we can get the donations going soon.

Rustie I know how close you and Mike are, I'm so sorry.

Steve Hoog, you've be an inspiration to many! We're seeing way too much of this and honestly it scares the h*ll out of me. I'm praying for you everyday!

Thank you to everyone, your help and prayers mean more than you know. Mike probably won't post, but he will read, or be read, your words of encouragement.

Thanks again!

Donations are nice but don't really put a dent in the medical.

Love is the better gift; those close helping family out with food and taking care of the house, assuming he has a wife and kids like me.

Just like Mike, I had no clue what was going on inside of me. No pain, and the only sign was a spot of blood in my stool.

David, thank you.

Go to PayPal.com first and then send money to the above account name. The link just sends an email to that account, so ignore it.

Now here's a guy that simply does not deserve this...but at the same time is one tough SOB and I sure as heck hope and pray he can beat it. We fellow Pontiacers, and specifically us B Body guys, need him in our corner.

Don, if a person doesn't have a paypal account how else could one send anything to help? This is really bad as I've been reading Mike's posts for years. I hate hearing this as this in some ways hits home with me as my stepmother and an uncle are fighting cancer and it's doubtful my stepmother will make it the next six months.
Prayers coming from the Tarheel state for Mike and his family from my wife and I. Good luck Mike.

Thumbs up Ladies and gentlemen,

Prayers are nice and I'm sure they're welcome, but they won't pay the bills for the extraordinary extra expenses Mike and his family will now experience.

Step up to the plate. We, as PYers, have a long history of being generous to members in trouble or need. Your donation will continue that proud legacy.
