Good evening, faithful Top Comments readers.
This past week has been very emotional for me. You all know that the community was asked to help Rich and me out in a very tough financial time. Many of you - almost 200 of you, in fact - actually contributed either financially, or with a prize for the drawing. I wish you could all win, because I know that I won a lot of faith in humanity during this experience. Many others offered emotional support, and stories of their own. You warmed my heart and uplifted my soul and I appreciate that.
And now to recognize some of the individual angels.
I specifically want to thank JekyllnHyde for starting everything, Sara R for offering her lovely quilt and diarying, KelleyRN2, indeimcemopants, Dragon5616, and blue jersey mom for diarying. blue jersey mom also kindly offered a challenge on the final fundraiser diary, which eeff, and joanbrooker promptly offered to meet. boran2,Purple Priestess, Chun Yang, triciawyse, Chacounne, gloriana, asimbagirl, and nickinnewyork offered lovely prizes.
The thing I need to say is thank you. I wish I had better words to express how grateful, how humbled, and how loved we feel, but I don't. Thank you, Daily Kos.
