Hi PAMT
It's crap. Just like our MT jobs being outsourced to India, the poor-quality clothing is a result of the outsourcing of the textile industry from the USA. It's a shame.
I'll pay extra for goods made in the USA.

no verizon does not carry over minutes BUT i saw an ad of theirs on TV last night that they are offering a free month trial with them. dont know the details but they said you can try them out for a month free - might want to call for specifics.
Thanks, PAMT! (sm)
That will be great!
This is a slow go here. People are skeptical. I wrote to a newspaper in Honolulu and received a reply from the Editor questioning the legitimacy of the story. Understandable from her point of view. I provided her with links from newspaper stories regarding Conner. She wrote back and said after checking it out she would be sending him a U of Hawaii hat herself.
As far as I know, Conner has not received any other hats. His mom posts a thank you on their web site when they receive gifts.
Thanks again for taking the time/effort to send a hat to Conner!
Thanks, PAMT! (sm)
I'm sure it got there and thanks so much for sending it! I added your state to the list on the Hats for Conner web site.
I don't expect to hear from the Smith's as they are overwhelmed with their lives and caring for Conner. I don't know how they do it. Four kids, one in the hospital in another state, and parents split up between the two locations. If you read the past journal entries, you will see the other kids exhibit some NEMO traits and the daughter has been determined to be a genetic carrier of NEMO, resulting in a 50% change of HER children being born with NEMO.
Imagine the stress this family is under?
I have been in touch with Lori, a family friend of the Smith's. I wanted to make sure it was OK to do this hat thing and she said go for it. Now she is in the hospital today having a C-section!
Updates are usually posted in the evening on their web site. Yesterday's was a bit more encouraging.
I hope more people send hats - Conner needs diversion and entertainment while stuck in that hospital room day after day.
I am not too far away, PAMT, assuming that's PA.
I should come with you! lol
PAMT~MDM, you feelin' any better?
FIBRO- calling PamT
Went to the physician today and said had no idea what was going on, the pain there every day but on a scale of 1-10 today, probably a 9+- but hey that had improved from the weekend when it was a 15+. I told him needed to find out what causing and he checked for the pressure points that go along with fibro and I was about to climb up the walls when he told me I had the classic signs. I told him the big drugs not helping but have been given Medrol Dosepak for a week, cortisone injection (which he says should not be given all the time but say if a vacation coming up, then get this) and antidepressants as he says the nerves travel close together, the ones for pain and the ones for depression and they have a cross over effect for the fibro even if you do not have depression and I do not. Lastly he recommended that I get into water aerobics and will check on that tomorrow. I have low impact exercises set up but had to get over this intense pain before I could even do that. Hope this information helps.
To PAMT down below regarding frequent urination sm
I, too, have to pee alot, and I get so tired of it. I think i'm going to the doctor after the kids go back to school. Sometimes I "leak" a little. I'm only 36 and I don't want to have bladder problems! I do love drinking water, and i don't know if it could be from possibly drinking so much water. Sometimes i even feel a little pressure while doing "bedroom activities", and will even have to stop in the middle and go to the bathroom. I normally don't have pain, but the sensation of having to go and sometimes pressure. So no, you aren't alone.
I agree PAMT, I also have a teenage daughter
as well as 5 teenage nieces and that is why I asked the poster to elaborate on her post. See mine below.
