Murph, thank you very much for your donation, it's extremely appreciated.

Also, thanks Mark, your donation put me over the $2000 mark!! Greatly appreciated buddy.

I'm going to send out the last recap to all my friends on Facebook, so hopefully we'll get it even higher!! Exhausting all my means for an organization that has helped me out so much.

Hey guys, a update on my fundraising.

So far on my page people have donated $2331.00, and I have more pledges to add as follows-

One of my caregiver raised $200
my sister has raised $200
I have another $200 raised that hasn't been added to my total.

Basically that will put me at $2931, and I need another $70 to make it to $3000!! Everyone has been extremely generous, and I very much appreciate everything that everyone has done, but I was wondering if we could squeeze out another $70. My sister is also posting this info on the Johnny Cash forum.

Again, I appreciate everything wholeheartedly, and don't want to come across as being pushy.

Thank you very much.

$50 short of $3000, just received a donation from Australia. Truly amazing!!

Alright guys, I haven't forgotten about you. I have quite a few pictures from the wheelchair relay and I will do my best to get them on here in the next couple of days (If I'm up I can't use my computer). I'll also include a more thorough message with details. I went out last night and got schmammered and I'm still hung over , so I'm not really into doing anything. Oh yeah, my friends had to drive my wheelchair for me because, well, I couldn't

Sound’s like you had quite the time Cam. Good to hear you survived the post race “down downs” which I figured were the reason you were MIA. Looking to forward to the event pics when your recovered.

Yo Cam, how did it go?

It went great Rick, it was a lot of fun. I have all the pictures loaded online, but I'm just waiting for the total amount that I raised, and then I'll fill everyone in!

Hey guys,

The wheelchair relay went great, there was a huge turnout. It turned into a family event for me which was nice. My mom and dad were volunteering and my sister was on our relay team.

In our first heat we finished first and went straight to the finals, but in the finals Melissa and I had to put our electric wheelchairs in first gear, and her first gear was pretty much slower than walking speed, so although we were ahead by quite a bit, everyone caught up to her and lapped her so we ended up finishing third.

We ended up winning for the team with the most money raised, and I ended up winning for the most money raised by an individual.

In the past I haven't taken part in events like this, but I do plan on participating in more in the future.

Again, thanks for everyone's donation, it was extremely magnanimous of all of you. Over the years I have become very cynical because of things that I have gone through with caregivers/medical professionals etc., being involved in political and social issues, and the general state of the world today as we know it. It was a definite breath of fresh air to receive donations from people that don't even know me personally, but just wanted to help out a good cause. I definitely won't forget this.

Here is the link to my album for the relay, enjoy!! If it doesn't work please let me know.

Thanks again everyone, and thanks Axiom for allowing me to post this on their form.

PS. I still haven't received the final numbers on how much was raised, but when I do I'll definitely for you guys in.

Congratulations Cam, we were all glad to help in our small way, looks like you all had a great time by the looks on your faces.

Way to go Cam, congrats my friend.
