Poll - ptepaul - Would You Like To Help?

As most of you know, Paul lost both of his legs to a homicide vehicle attack in Afghanistan. He was driving a Canadian Military Gwagen (named Charlene - her remains are in the photo below), which he credits with saving his life due to its strong construction. Shortly after the attack and when folks were contacting me for his hospital mailing address to send well wishes, several people asked me if they could contribute to a fund of some sort to help him out.

Since he's back among us and recuperating and rehabilitating nicely, I told him about the offers and asked if there was anything that we could do to help. Here is his response:

>Thanks for the kind offer. Although I loathe being a charity case, I
>understand where the desire to help comes from.
>In Canada all my medical expenses for the rest of my life are
>covered, including costs of prosthetics and even vehicle modifications.
>
>So the only area that I would need help in is in some house
>renovations. Specifically the basement - I would like to make it into
>a guest room and a play room for my son Simon.
>
> Paul


Would anyone like to contribute towards the "Mercedes-Benz Gwagen Guest and Play Rooms" in Paul's basement? Please respond only by clicking the "Yes" or "No" Poll Response located just above this message body - scroll up to see it. No other response is necessary at this time.

If there is enough interest, Paul would probably set up a PayPal or other similar account for you to contribute. That way, any contribution you might make would be strictly between you and Paul.

What do you think? Would you like to contribute to help a fellow Gwagen family member who has given a lot towards making this world a safer place? Wouldn't it be neat for his guests to stay and his son to play in rooms provided by owners of the vehicle that saved his life? Click your response in the Poll above.

Thanks and Happy Trails!
