"Oh my God. I'm overwhelmed with happiness."
Those are the words of one of Lucky's owners after the HUGE success of yesterday's fundraiser, and I'm feeling the same! Over $3,000 was raised in just those 2 hours! Wow..... I'm on the verge of tears, I'm so delighted!
Yes, that guy with the camera must've been from the LSJ, because there is
another article today, with 3 pictures of Lucky, plus one of some of the volunteers in action. One of the pictures is at the bottom of the front page, leading you to the article which begins on the front page of section B. The picture on page 5B shows the daughter whom I spoke with yesterday, Sarah Cain, a.k.a. "Lucky's sister." : )
Now, I don't mean to be a nag, but please don't let this great news stop you from considering buying the Ren Fair tickets. The article points out that she's now had a 4th surgery and, "There's no telling yet how much the dog's medical bills will be." I myself plan on donating again in a week or two, when my budget allows -- gotta keep the girl stocked in shoes! Besides, I don't think you'll find 2 Ren Fair tix for $25 anywhere else. And I'd much rather donate them to Lucky's cause than to use them myself, even though it would be a lot of fun; helping Lucky would make me happier.
Love to all, Rebecca -- and thanks one more time to all who donated! I hope this makes you feel as warm and joyous as I do. : )
P.S. I forgot to mention the 2 young girls selling lemonade to raise money for Lucky at the car wash -- how sweet is that?
