Help M, Q and J

We need your help now!


We need your help NOW!


This is not scam. This is a true story and you can contribute too!

The story is about a young married couple, let’s call them M and Q, who have a child, let’s call him J, who is 3 years old (same as our Jack). Recently they found out that they will have another baby, due at the end of September. All great so far. The issue is that Q recently found out that he has pancreatic cancer, stage 4 which is inoperable and incurable. The doctors have told Q, best case scenario he will live one year but it could be  as short as 6 months. The cost of the chemo treatment is pretty high so M needs to continue to work.

And this is where we come in. We would love to hear that there’s a miracle medicine which will completely and irreversibly cure the cancer. Or we’d at least like Q to see the day the new baby is born. But none of these are in our power to change…what we could do though is to contribute so that M could stay home and not go to work.

If you’re healthy and reading these lines it means you already have a lot more than this family. You can contribute – and my commitment is that for any $1 you donate, I will match $1 up to $20 (and max $1,500). You can donate any amount and you can use PayPal for that (for a small fee). The goal is to get to $3,000 which should be easy since I have 239 FB friends and I know there’s a least 75 folks out there who’ll take this challenge seriously.

M and Q don’t know we’re doing this. Let’s surprise them! I think they could really use some good news these days. Thank you!

Avem nevoie de ajutorul tau acum!


Asta nu e un scam. E o poveste adevarata iar tu poti contribui!

Povestea este despre 2 tineri casatoriti, sa le zicem M si Q, care au un copil, sa ii zicem J de 3 ani (la fel ca Jack al nostru). De curand au aflat ca vor mai avea un copil, asteptat cu drag la sfarsitul lui Septembrie. Numai lucruri bune pana aici. Problema e ca Q a aflat de curand ca are cancer pancreatic, faza a4a care este inoperabil si incurabil. Doctorii i-au dat trait intre 6 si 12 luni. Costurile tratamentului (chimo-terapie) sunt destul de mari, astfel ca M trebuie sa continue sa lucreze.

Si aici intervenim noi. Am vrea sa existe vreun medicament minune care sa elimine complet si ireversibil cancerul. Sau am vrea macar ca Q sa apuce ziua nasterii celui de-al doilea copil. Dar astea nu sunt in puterea noastra….ceea ce am putea face totusi, este sa contribuim indeajuns pentru ca M sa stea acasa si sa nu mai lucreze.

Daca esti sanatos si citesti aceste randuri inseamna ca ai deja mai mult decat aceasta familie. Contribuie cu orice suma si pentru fiecare $1 donat de tine eu voi dona $1, pana la $20 (si maxim $1,500) – poti dona orice suma prin PayPal (pentru un comision minim). Obiectivul e sa strangem $3,000 si ar trebui sa fie usor din moment ce am 239 prieteni pe facebook si stiu ca cel putin 75 dintre ei vor lua aceasta provocare in mod serios.

M si Q nu stiu ca noi facem acest lucru. Hai sa ii surprindem! Cred ca au nevoie de ceva vesti bune. Multumesc!
