<blockquote>So as an update, the benefit went really well. We raised $10,000!!!!!!!!! Which is incredible with the amount of time we had. I am so happy this worked out, and the dude the benefit was for was just shinin'. Had to be one of the best days of my life--just to see people pitch in and take care of someone. He loved the disco, and I made some old people dance. I am a happy person right now. Thank you everyone for your suggestions, and help!!! </blockquote> That's awesome, glad everything worked out. Benefits are always a good time when they go well, seeing the person they are for beaming can lift you for daaaays. I went to one recently for a local bartender who caught some type of cancer, and I hadn't seen him in a few years. He was a big guy at one point, 250 lbs easy. At the benefit I walked right by him without recognizing him, the chemo took maybe 100-120 lbs off him. He grabs me and I'm stammering for words because I was suprised at how skinny he was and he just yells, "IF YOU FIND MY OTHER HALF BUY HIM A BEER!!!" That was a fun day, they raised around $30,000 for the guy's bills.
