edit. I'll go ahead and donate $50 more right now as well. I said that I would match one person, but both of you look to have donated pretty close to the same time.

aaaaaahhhhh man that is like a big pink hoochie...if nothing else it speaks to bringing hope and in my view there is no better gift for a child. This is a terrible disease and no kids should have to suffer.

Mike's launch is coming up and if my promo goes well next week I will be one of the first to kick it in...

[Todd Lamb]

We do a 1100 km cycling ride here for kids with Cancer...it raises close to a million a year. When we see the kids suffering from this disease, the inner strength they possess..it is truly amazing.

Kids are meant to be running through sprinklers and laughing at cartoons not battling diseases.

I don't want to hijack this thread so I will close by saying only this...

Bring hope to this child today....donate!

Mike,

I offer a Tweet Riches form for the site to make it go viral to help reach even more people. PM me and I will send you the code to put into the page. I will help out any way I can. It is for a child and I am a father of 3 young children. Everyone who can help should. It is time to come together. That is what makes the Warriors so strong!

Mike you are doing a good thing!
Keep it up buddy!

Regards,
Ryan Bessling

Tina sent me here today. Good luck with the fund-raising. I do know two Hodgkins survivors (they both are now 20+ years after treatment and going strong) personally, so it's definitely beatable. I'll offer my prayers as well for her and her family.

Hi, thanks for bringing this to us Mike ... I tweeted, made a donation, and will send my best thoughts ...

Had an e-mail from Ken Letherman today about Macy. We've made a donation via PayPal.

Macy, you're an inspiration to all of us, regardless of how long we've been on planet Earth.

Best wishes,

[bigcat]

Donation Made and I plan to Tweet and ask for RTs.

[Danny B]

I have decided to donate a little bit. I don't have much, heck, right now I don't have much of anything at all, to be totally honest, but I want to do the right thing, and so, I've found some money for her.

I may be poor, but she may die, I wonder what's more important. lol.

[Jason Zalesky]

Hey this is a good thing going. My parents are still paying for my brothers treatment that he had to go through some 20 years ago. He is better now but it costs miliions even with insurance to treat cancer. So the more they can get the better. Lets just hope that she can get better.

Jason

[charlesburke]

Mike, thanks for the chance to help. Donation sent, and gladly.
Also thanks for standing up for Macy.

Cheers from warm and smiling Thailand,

Donation sent. Thank you to all the generous people here who are showing that you care! Prayers to Macy and her family for a speedy recovery and thanks Mike for bringing it to our attention.

It just brings to mind again how fortunate most of us are being healthy, having enough to eat, having a warm place to sleep in at night. I for one am thankful for what I have and I am even more thankful that I am in a place to share what I have with someone else even if it is just a little.

Another Update: What a great day!!! Over the past 2 days there were 49 donations with a total of $779.74. Now @ $8,956.54!!! Most of the donations are a result of the members of this forum. Thanks again... Please pray that we get the results tomorrow... I will not be in until late but if I can get access to a computer I will update the forum... It will most likely be late tomorrow night before I can update though.

Thanks again guys. We are getting closer and closer to the goal!! As some have said already, it would be great to bless them even beyond the goal. $10,000 is the goal I set for the website and though it will not cover everything it will be a HUGE help toward covering expenses. You Guys Are Awesome!

[cashonwebsites]

I know for fact that you will get good results tomorrow! YOU SHOULD NEVER DOUBT IT!
This is another great example of the power of people.
I 've started tweeting the link to the donation site 20 minutes ago (since I've just found out about this - Thanks MIKE You're Great -). I'm tracking the hits. 800 in 20 minutes. I'm money will come out of this and we'll get to $10,000.
All of you who helped ... MY RESPECT. You are All high quality people and thanks to people like you this world is getting better and better. Is people like you who make a difference in the world. And don't forget one of the Laws of this universe is RECIPROCITY.
Keep doing what you're doing!!!

The results I am speaking of here are the test results. We should hear from the doctor tomorrow and he is going to tell us that the Cancer is gone. It has been such a long week waiting for the test results and it is my prayer that they come in tomorrow.

The prayers for another great donation day are good too. But the family needs some good news tomorrow. When you are waiting on news like this the time passes so very slow...

Thanks, Will

Ryan, thank you very much for doing this. I didn't really understand what you were offering. I got the code from you earlier tonight and put it on the website and it works great. People will be able to tweet the message from Macy's page without ever even leaving the site. I haven't seen a tool like this before. I wish I was the one that came up with it!

Thanks again

Another update on the site. With tomorrow being the big day for the test results, I thought I would redesign the site a little. So, I have made changes to the top of the page. Macy, I hope you like the changes I made to your pic. I am praying for awesome news tomorrow.

Will

Hmm... forget the talk about scamming. I'm a college kid living in poverty, but I couldn't help it. Just donated a little bit

I cannot imagine myself being diagnosed with cancer, yet being diagnosed at 15? I hope we can all help her out.

I give the best of my wishes to Macy.

[Will_Surren]

Macy, her Mom and Dad as well as the rest of the family have waited all week to hear the results of the tests. Macy went to her appointment yesterday and found that all of the results were not yet in and will most likely be another week before she hears the results. The Dr. did say he is happy with what he is seeing. However, the results of the test are what we are really wanting to hear.

I will keep you updated as soon as I hear the results, I will pass them on to you.

Thanks, Will

[Will_Surren]

Donations update

As you know the goal is $10,000
and I am happy to report that
donations have now passed $9000.
Donations are now at $9013.10. Only
$986.90 to go. It is a little more than
that with PayPal fees but we are so close
to reaching the Goal.

Thanks again to everyone who has helped
and please continue to tweet and tell others about
Macy.

William

[EndGame]

Hey team.

I don't the think target has been met yet.

I know many of you maybe not be able to put the money forward to help Macy, but you could put the word out. Thats something everyone could really do. I have told friends over seas, friends at home and all my work co-workers to at least check out the site and make a donation if they can.

Although the momentum has died down on our end, that doesn't mean Macy's situation has got any less serious or terrible.

If you can't donate, please let people know about the site, situation and/or appeal.

[Will_Surren]

I have an update on Macy's condition. Though the news was not great, there is always a bright side to everything.

Macy's treatments have been 78% effective. This means that there is still 22% of the cancer remaining. Not the news we were looking for but still encouraging that 78% of the size is gone.

Going forward Macy will undergo 14 days straight having radiation treatments. The under lying good news here is her doctor said that the odds of the cancer relapsing with only having Chemo is greater than the cases to where the patient has radiation. The patients that go through successful radiation are less likely to have a relapse than if only treated with Chemo.

We are very close to reaching the goal of 10,000. We are now at $9,059 but the donations have really slowed down. As you can see above, this thread is not getting very many comments over the past few days. I ask that even if you are unable to donate, please leave a comment on the page. You comments show that other people care and help people get involved. We are not far from the goal and if I could afford to donate the amount needed to reach the goal I would but at this time, I am not positioned to donate at that level. If you can donate even as little as $1.00 it will help us reach the goal. Please know that people have donated anywhere from $1.00 up to $3,000 so it is not the size of your donation. It is the fact that you are willing to help. If you can not donate, can you tell a friend? Can you put a product up on your site and tell your customers to donate and send you their paypal email showing they donated?

There are many ways that all of us can help and it will not take much to reach the goal. So, please help us keep this appeal going until we reach the goal.

Thank you, Will Surren

The website for donations is http://MacyJohns.com please visit the site now. Also, you can visit
Hodgkins Disease Symptoms What to look out for in your Child.
to find out the symptoms of Hodgkins' Disease to make sure your child does not have symptoms that go unnoticed.

Thanks again, Will

[Andyhenry]

Thanks a lot for the update Will.

It was only a few months ago that I went over to Singapore to spend 3 months with my sister after she was diagnosed with stage2 breast cancer.

My sister had her Chemo, then had the 2 lumps and her lymph nodes removed - then they decided that because the biopsy on the lymph nodes showed cancer in many of them that she should have another round of chemo to blast her whole body to try and catch any cancer cells that got spread.

She then had the radiation therapy.

So I know what Macy is going through and what you and her relatives must be going through too - I was in your position very recently so my heart goes out to you.

In my case my sister is now clear of cancer so it was a great relief and I got a text from her today saying she was at the hair dresser, which consider she had no hair until recently was great news

Please don't think that we've stopped thinking about you and Macy or that the donations won't continue.

Regards,

Andy

[Randy Smith]

Only just heard about this from one of my own forum members.

Glad to tweet it and help a little. (I'll also encourage other members of mine to visit here and read this thread - great work Will & Mike)


Good luck with hitting the 10K - yu look so close!

[peter gibson]

As you can see by my sig I am also doing what I can for the cause. I'll be posting about this donation on my network of sites as well, likely this coming week. This has been tweeted by me quite a bit since I read of it. I pray for her and that people can see fit to really dig into their hearts and pockets to give all that is needed, if not even more.

[onlinewannabee]

its glad to hear that Macy's condition is getting better with that 78% willness. At least that's a big chance already that she is going to be getting well real soon. Our prayers are with you Macy and your family. Good luck to the fund raising im sure you will hit the target real soon.

@Will - thanks for dropping by my blog and posting a comment on the Macy article. God bless!

[Will_Surren]

Thank you guys! I have another update on the donations meter. We are now at $9121.62. I should also have some special news to post this week. One of the top Internet Marketers contacted me about a gift they are sending to Macy. I am going to ask him if I can share the news of this gift on the website. I know he is not looking to get attention from this gift so I feel I should ask his permission before posting.

Also, I am sure you can imagine how a young girl would feel going in public with no hair. I am sure it is not the most comfortable feeling. Macy was able to get a wig this week that looks like real hair. The colored wig that you see on her site though cute, it doesn't look natural. Your gifts have given her the ability to go in public without feeling that people are staring at her. With her having to go through radiation, Macy knows that her hair will not be growing back as soon as she had hoped. She showed me the wig yesterday and she asked me to pass on to all of you that she is very grateful.

Thank you all, Will

[Pat Ordenes]

Next person to send me proof of donation will get a free Ebook cover design and header from me if they like.

[Will_Surren]

Ok I have some great news to share about someone who made a big donation. He is one of the names everyone knows on here I'm sure. I will be updating the meter on the site tomorrow and will post the donation information on the site.

Thank you all...

If that leaves the number at under $10,000 still - I WILL MAKE UP THE DIFFERENCE to get it there.

[Will_Surren]

Ok, I was not able to contact the donor directly so I am sorry for the delay. I was able to speak with his office so I wanted the warriors to be the first to get this news. I am about to update the site meter with the new total. The family had asked me to turn off donations after the total exceeded $10,000 and I had planned to do so. However, now that we know Macy has to go through more treatments, I plan to keep it going a little longer.

Ok, So first I want everyone to know that no matter how large a donation, everyone has helped in great ways. So, whether you sent a prayer, emails to friends, monetary donation of any size, posted a blog article or sent some love toward Macy and her family, you are all great and it is appreciated. I am not posting the info about this donation for any reason other than to show others that our leaders in internet marketing care about others and they silently give back not asking for recognition. These guys have sent several emails personally asking how Macy is doing and It can teach us all that when we do make it big, we can use our wealth to help others in need.

To give you some insight, Mike Filsaime contacted Frank Kern before Mike ever posted to this thread. Between Mike and Frank $4,100 was donated to Macy and Mike told me there were great people here on the Warrior Forum that he wanted to give an opportunity for you guys to get involved. He also told me that he was sure that we would reach the goal. However, if for any reason the goal was not met he would make a donation that would get to the goal.

So, here is the news!!! At Frank Kern’s Mass Control Workshop at The Hard Rock Hotel in San Diego, CA Frank had a thought. He had items that he was going to sell at the workshop and he made a decision that he would hold a fundraiser for Macy. Frank raised over $7,000 at this event and sent a donation directly to Macy. I do not know the exact amount of the check at the minute but will get the details ASAP. I know the check was $7,300 +. Wow!!! This takes the donations well above the goal of $10,000. Thank you Mike, Frank and all of you for making this happen. There is also an additional $1,400 that was raised at Franks’ workshop that is being delivered in person by the donor. This total is not included in the amount above.

There are 100's of people that have donated in many ways. I would like to list all of the names on Macy's website with a huge thank you. However, I did not think to ask for permission on the site and I did not post a privacy policy.

I would like to ask you here and now, if you helped in any way through prayer, tweets, emails, blogging, monetary donation or in any other way, I would like to place your name on Macy's homepage. No one took advantage of the advertising on the homepage that was offered. I know that many of the people that donated own their own websites and products and made donations without requesting any recognition. Now, I am asking you for permission to thank you in public if possible. I would like to post your name and a link to your site but if you would rather remain anonymous maybe you would allow me to post your first initial and last name. Just let me know by sending an email to donations@macyjohns.com.

Ok, visit the site in the next 15 minutes to see the meter and where we stand on donations now.

Thanks again to all of you from Michael, Pam, Macy and the rest of her family. You can only imagine how much help this is giving this family.

Also, I want to send a personal thanks from me. You have all touched my heart in a very special way. I am honored to be a part of these special gifts to my cousin Macy.

William Surrency

PS: After hearing of the additional treatments Macy is going to have and the stories I have heard of the amounts parents are still paying toward treatments of their children that are now adults and also seeing the great results from all of the donations, I am going to leave the donation buttons live through $20,000.

PSS: Let's keep this post bumped up for a while if possible to where everyone will know how they have helped in this effort.

[Andyhenry]

THANKS! Will.

You've done an amazing job helping Macy and you're an inspiration yourself.

I really appreciate you and the effort you've spent in getting the word out and facilitating letting us help.

There are probably way more benefits to what you've done here than just what's happened with the contributions for Macy. I know that many newcomers to this forum don't realise just how different it and the people in it are.

Seeing just how many warriors actually step up and help out in whatever way they can when someone is in need really can make a difference.

There is a big mindset in the IM community online that everyone's out for themselves and will screw anyone over to make a dollar - but example like this thread are able to break that mindset and show that this forum is full of real people with huge hearts.

I'd rather not have a link on Macys website as I think the information on there should be about her - not us, but I appreciate that you're making these offers so that others know that there are real people behind those numbers.

Take care, pass on our wishes to Macy and thanks for everything you're doing - you're a good person and I'm sure she appreciates you even more than we do for what you're doing now.

Andy

[Will_Surren]

Today should be Macy's last radiation treatment. The x-ray appointments should be scheduled very soon. The x-rays will tell us how the treatments went. We are very hopeful that this will be the end of cancer for Macy and she will be able to get on with a normal life of a 15 year old girl. Please continue to pray for Macy and I will be here to update you as soon as the x-rays are scheduled and soon after I hope to be back with news of a Cancer FREE Macy...


I know that Macy would want me to put this information out so I am providing you with info about a little girl that Macy knows.
I want to take this opportunity to tell you about a girl who was in the hospital with Macy. Chase Haydu is a 9 year old girl with Wilms' Tumor. After seeing how a simple website has helped Macy and her family, I have donated another site. This one is for The Chase Haydu Foundation. Macy is family so it was slightly different asking others to pitch in and help. However, I know the needs of this little girl and her single mother. You can find out more about Chase at How is Chase Doing? Stay In The Loop. Also, instead of simply asking for donations, I created a website at the Butterfly Marketing Workshop and I am dedicating my portion of the income from this site to the Chase Haydu Foundation. I am also offering a JV Pro Membership in the WSO forum to help promote the site. The commissions payout to the JV's is 95%. You can find out more about the product and the JV offer in the following thread. http://www.warriorforum.com/warrior-...r-patient.html

I will be back with more info on Macy as soon as the x-rays are scheduled.

Thanks, Will

[ecoverartist]

I don't know HOW I missed the original thread but I just sent in my donation too!

We're looking forward to hearing good news from the doctors on Macy's treatment!

[Will_Surren]

An update on Macy for everyone who did so much to help in this effort. Macy has completed chemo and radiation treatments. She received a donation from a group that gave her bedroom a makeover. Also, Disney gave her and her family a dream vacation in Orlando Florida. This all followed the week her radiation treatments ended. Thursday, August 13, 2009 is a very BIG day for Macy and all of her family. We expect to receive the results of all testing. This is the day that we look forward to hearing that she had kicked cancer's but. Please keep praying for remission... I will update you on the results as soon as I hear.

Thank you again for all of your help..

Hiya Will, been impatiently waiting for this news. I'm so glad that others are doing their part in Macy's battle. As you can see I'm doing what I can as well. My prayers continue to be with her and I cannot wait for the good news on August 13. I will log in here on that day specifically for that reason.

God speed Will.

[Will_Surren]

Great News!!


Today's News

I am happy to read this awesome news! I will keep her in my prayers anyway, but this post made my day.

Thanks for sharing.
