It's Giving Tuesday! Go Blue.
Our football coach just gave up more money than I see in 10 years to the Athletic Dept. Blake gave out a hundredy turkeys/meals last week. Brad Robbins is puntin' for cancer. Today is #givingtuesday so where are you sending $$.
Go Blue! Love Wins!

Got a donation amount suggestion? My brain keeps coming up with $42.27 for some reason.

Someone started a thread yesterday about OSU fans donating to ChadTough so if any Wolverines wish to return the gesture, a list of OSU medical charities I found yesterday:

To all giving today to whatever charity, Thank you!

This post is great, wasn't trying to say that, my bad.
I was just trying to explain why I was posting the OSU charity link

My money goes to the EB Research Partnership. Their mission is to find a cure for Epidermolysis Bullosa; the skin disease that took my youngest son. Here is a link: https://www.ebresearch.org/
Donations made in memorial to my son have funded the creation of a gene therapy robot at the University of Minnesota: https://med.umn.edu/news-events/university-minnesota-medical-school-researchers-continue-search-answers-surrounding-rare-condition
For those who don't know about this disease, please watch Venture into Cures here: https://ebresearch.brandlive.com/venture-into-cures-2021/en

Sorry for your loss. I can't imagine the heartbreak of losing a child.

May you never experience it! My fundraising efforts are intended to protect others from this experience in accordance with my son's final wish.
This is a speech I gave 5 months after he passed: https://vimeo.com/254040117
And a brief memorial video: https://vimeo.com/242111083
I have been on the faculty on worked staff positions at Mississippi State University so the Bulldogs were his first love but I shared my love Michigan football with him as well.
If this motivates anyone to donate, it is worth losing my internet anonymity.
