To wonder why there has STILL been no donation?

This has probably been done, I know there was a long running thread about this very subject but I can't find it?
So, several months on I see Dax's parents have still not made the promised donation to Ronald McDonald hospice. On March 2nd they updated the Facebook page to say they works be making the donation 'very soon', but still nothing.
Am I the only one thinking they have no intention of donating any money out of the tens of thousands donated to them? That in fact they intend to keep it all and deny the very charity that provided them with so much support in the early weeks of their Childs life?
In fact, I don't think im the only one judging by the comments on the Facebook page.
I think they're hoping it will blow over and if they keep quiet long enough people will forget.

Why next week? Are they planning a big cheque hand over? or stalling for more time and hoping everyone forgets

Why has my post been deleted?!

I doubt they'll specify exactly how much they've donated, but I guess that would be easy enough to find out. I feel a bit sorry for the baby's mother as she seems to be quite dominated by that permatanned mountain of idiot, if that interview with them is anything to go by.

They've now deleted any comments which contain the amount RMHC should be receiving (ie, 10k+). They originally said that RMHC would be commenting on the page to confirm alongside confirmation from whoever hands the dough over (as if).

Urgh this is so uncomfortable to watch. They are making themselves look so dodgy.

Blush Sorry.

They're a disgrace, plain and simple

senrensareta · 07/04/2015 01:29

There was a post on the FB page 4hrs ago saying that a donation will be made next week, maybe if enough people like that post they will realise that people are looking in and waiting for them to do that

On top of what SGB said there are a lot of people willing to believe the worst about American healthcare costs and insurance. They would never have ended up chained to the sink in the hospital kitchen washing dishes for the next twenty years but that is hard for some people to understand.

LittleIda · 07/04/2015 14:08

The page has 21 k followers, so quite a lot of people keeping an eye on what's going on with the donation.

GraysAnalogy · 07/04/2015 14:28

God I forgot all about this. The trouble this caused. Set of shit wads

spudholes · 07/04/2015 16:45

Fuming at what I've just read. They really have no shame. I don't want to post it here because a tenner says they are reading it. Message me if you want to know.

AyeAmarok · 07/04/2015 16:54

Is it on the FB page Spud? I don't see it, have they deleted it?

GraysAnalogy · 07/04/2015 16:57

Spud just say it? It doesn't really matter whether they're reading or not.

QueenBean · 07/04/2015 16:59

Spuds what is it?

This whole thing is shameful

GraysAnalogy · 07/04/2015 17:00

I just went back to that page (funny really since he blocked me a while back) and the amount of kiss arses is astonishing. There isn't even any sense amongst it because it just gets deleted. That should be banned on public pages, unless it's obviously inflammatory

spudholes · 07/04/2015 17:01

It does matter. I will PM you both.
