Jeez, this thread is inspiring. Wish I wasn't a broke student so I could help but I'll keep this family in my thoughts, especially the child.
How heartbreaking that one so young is burdened with so much. Hoping for a huge swing in his condition. Aggie love is strong on this thread and I hope this family is able to spend their time filled with love and removed from any trivial stress. Otto and family, we're all pulling for you!

Have given, wish I could give more. Please everyone, in addition to giving, put Otto on your prayer list and that of your churches. God works miracles every day. We know that sometimes we don't get the answers that we want but we have to ask.
Looks like a donation from the Sumlins too. Very nice of them.
None of this money can add more days to Otto's life, but it can add more life to his remaining days, and that's no small thing. Proud to be an Aggie at times like this.
Fleen I still post these days but pretty much just in H&F. The board's grown so much it has a different feel and I don't recognize most of the names anymore . Would be fun some game weekend to do an early 2000s reunion. Don't want to derail this thread, but you're welcome to message ellentheaggie at hotmail if you'd like to chat more.
Really proud to see the Aggie family show its Texas-sized heart this week.
Pray for Kourtney and Gus that their marriage survives this. My son was diagnosed with Cancer at age 2, he survived but it took his mother's soul and she left the marriage half way through his 3 year treatment.
50% of marriages end in Divorce, 90% of marriages end in Divorce when a child dies.
And in response to the person asking about how much will go to the family:
There is a specified transaction fee (in my case, it was $1.98 on a $25 donation), but the site also allows you to add the fee to the donation to cover the site's administrative costs (in my case, I chose yes, so my receipt shows $26.98).
