Not a power struggle at all, I just want to know what to do with the money.

theDudesmummy · 29/06/2012 13:34

I have donated to the antlx account (PayPal says is going to Sue St George)? Hope that this money will also get to expat and family?

StealthPolarBear · 29/06/2012 13:34

Update as and when you can. For now eat sleep and maybe watch some trashy tv.

theDudesmummy · 29/06/2012 13:35

Send it to Giraffes?

StealthPolarBear · 29/06/2012 13:35

And cuddle those you love, I bet you need to :(

Ponders · 29/06/2012 13:36

No problem

both accounts are for Aillidh

confusion sorted out

Thanks to all

giraffesCantFitInThePalace · 29/06/2012 13:40

I wasnt expecting as much sent to me as has been , i thought just a wee bit for food, as I am quite skint (I work as a nanny...not great pay!) but been lots more. I had previously been getting money from a fund set up ages ago for them for stuff too. all of it is for same thing.

clux73 · 29/06/2012 13:41

Pls can someone PM me the PayPal details too

Sirzy · 29/06/2012 13:42

Could some of the money be put to a special trip for her siblings over the summer holidays? Tickets to something that they would love?

And can someone send me the PayPal details?

StealthPolarBear · 29/06/2012 13:42

see it as a very basic and minimum indicator of all the good wishes that are out there for Ailidh

WithACherryOnTop · 29/06/2012 13:42

Please use it to cover your expenses too,Giraffes.

StealthPolarBear · 29/06/2012 13:43

(sorry what I meant is for everyone who has sent money so far - I haven't - there are another 50 lurking and praying)

Scootergrrrl · 29/06/2012 13:43

Like someone else said - you're welcome to use what I sent for gin and fags if that's what will make things even a tiny bit easier. Your unfailing support and loyalty must be vital to Expat and her family.

giraffesCantFitInThePalace · 29/06/2012 13:43

yes in discussions with exapt over summer camps for siblings. and activities for them :)

Please no one fight or get upset. Please. It is all for the same purpose.

Chubfuddler · 29/06/2012 13:44

I don't think it's right for us to start saying what should be done with the money in any way, however kindly meant. It's a freely given gift and must be used by the family, and their supporters such as giraffes as they feel best.

Alibabaandthe40nappies · 29/06/2012 13:47

giraffes I don't think anyone is getting upset :)

You are amazing to give up so much of your time to help, just amazing. Hope you get some rest now.

FoofFighter · 29/06/2012 13:48

I think there was just a mini panic that money would go into the ether Giraffes, that's all :)

TiaMariaandDietCoke · 29/06/2012 13:50

I'd also be happy to make a donation - if someone could update with the best paypal address to use that would be great

Birnamwood · 29/06/2012 13:52

I Have a contact at m&s head office who I have already contacted, I think she's on holiday until Tuesday though but I'm trying another avenue

Love, light and positive thoughts for Aillidh xxx

GoOnTim · 29/06/2012 13:55

Phew glad Paypal sorted!

Giraffes sweetheart, please take care of you. I know you're in the eye of the storm I'm worrying about you too.

Big love xx

(tis Pinot here under a namechange)

PostBellumBugsy · 29/06/2012 13:56

Adding my thoughts / prayers / good karma or whatever you want to call it for Expats daughter. Fight on little one.
Huge hug for Expat too.

giraffesCantFitInThePalace · 29/06/2012 13:57

I just didnt want 6500 colouring books Wink that is why I said food vouchers, cos that is what I buy them/they buy. cos lets face it canteen food is rank.

5madthings · 29/06/2012 13:57

i have donated as well, i am sure it will be spent however expat sees fit and what she decides is fine by me, if it can help in any tiny way then that is only a good thing.

StealthPolarBear · 29/06/2012 13:59

Yes :) keep bringing in the good stuff. You sAid expats not eating well and I bet you're not either. aid expata

ginnybag · 29/06/2012 14:01

Can I have the Paypal, please? And I'll state now I don't care what it gets spent on as long as it's one less thing for them to worry about.

Hang on in there, little one. It will get better soon.
