We can print at home and mail, or for those of you overseas, if it's easier, you can email me a file and I'll get a batch printed at Costco and send them all at once.
What do you guys think? After all, we ARE a photography website... :-) |
Count me in. Maybe you could start a separate thread for this effort if you are going to coordinate this OR people could just print and mail there's individually - might be funner for Dallas to have multiple photos from various places trickle in. Your call.
I also emailed requests the Kurt Busch contacts sempermarine published below. I think that would just be AWESOME!
Also, +1 on a Dallas tribute challenge!
Lastly, any suggestions on the types of gifts we could send or NOT send to Dallas at the hospital would be helpful. |

came in for a quick moment. thank you all for the support!
the only things he can't have is foods, fresh flowers, and balloons. but once he's moved from ICU, that may change.
thank you again, I am sure he would love to know all the support he has! he is definitely a fighter and will make it through.

he can definitely receive cards, and every time he gets one, the smile on his face and twinkle in his eyes (when he can get them open) is absolutely beautiful!
thank you so much. I am sure he will love it!

Hey Danielle, I'm a sports nut, especially football and baseball. I collect tons of memorbillia and have inside tracks on certain stuff. What is the little guys favorite team? I saw that he was a big NASCAR fan, unfortunately I don't know much about that.
If you're a Tebow fan in the slightest you should consider reaching out to his foundation, they do amazing work with kids going through hardships like your little guy is. About halfway down on this website is a contact email for someone in the Tebow foundation. //www.timtebowfoundation.org/contact. I'll send her an email also and anyone else who would like to, it can only help.
I can't wait to start seeing pictures of little Dallas when times are better. It's a heartbreaking thing. |

I agree with Sirashley above,
can you provide some more info - what things he likes (hotwheels, ice cream?) etc... I see this challenge as not for the score, but to help someone... |

Denielle... praying for Dallas and for you and the rest of your family during this time. Glad to see he's a fighter and the shot of him playing with dad shows how resilient a child can be. May God bless your whole family and keep you strong and pull him through.

he is a Dallas cowboys fan... that's why his name is Dallas, we named him after the cowboys. he is also a huge new Orleans saints fan, and Carolina tarheels basketball fan. :)
thank you!

Thanks for keeping us all up to date on Dallas progress - he is a real trooper. I continue to keep him and the family in my thoughts and prayers. The path to recovery is long but he is marching forth at a good pace.
Was at a loss as to what to do for the challenge that would help brighten his day a little ....but I think I now just had an idea that I hope time will permit to create. |

Oh Danielle! I just saw this & am heartbroken over a sweet child having to go thru what he is having to do. I love Deb's idea about a worldwide collection of places where people are thinking and praying for Dallas! I'll be watching to see if we should send digital files to Jason for a slideshow, or prints somewhere. In the meantime, so so SO many prayers being prayed for Dallas and for all of you as you walk with him through this terrible ordeal! ❤ |

My prayers are with Dallas and you, of course. His bravery and all that you're all going through certainly is an inspiration to every one of us who only think we have problems to deal with. May Dallas continue to heal and grow stronger, physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
If good wishes and empathy work, Dallas has a lot of power behind him right now, helping him...so do you! XO |
