Bob,
  Thanks for stepping in and offering to help.  I will be in touch with Ric if I have anyone wanting any of his bikes.  Since he is a Registered Honda Tech and has been since the 70's his bikes are as described.
  Again thanks.

To everyone;
  I just sent this email to Ric and feel he will respond.  I just thought I would break the ice for him.  You guys are the greatest.

Ric,
  Excuse me bothering you, but you need to go on the POG site and give people the choice of sending you a check or paypaling you.  I feel like you are really uncomfortable with this because I know you are a proud person, but your NEW AND OLD FRIENDS want to help you and Mert.  Let me know if I can help.  I would like to pay pal you if that is OK?

Hello all you great people,my e mailbox is jammed up with kind thoughts and wishes and i'm trying to answer them all and keep an eye on Mert as well.i really did not expect this and don't know what to say or how to act,except let's just say i'm a lot choked up right now and typing thru tears.I have never seen any other group of people with so much love and compassion for a animal they don't even know.Though he is a great little guy i must admit.Mert is home(after 3 days in emergency and sedated but you would never know it)with his buddy Malcolm-my other golden, and  he's doing as well as can be expected but has a long road ahead.let me just say that i am selling some things to cover the tests and treatment and hope to have it all covered and i didn't expect this and really don't know how to act(did i already say that?).YOU GUYS ARE REALLY PIECES OF WORK-GOOD WORK!i just was selling a few bikes and you guys do this -what a group-i'm speechless and that don't happen often.i'll keep you updated and am answering emails as fast as i can while trying to watch for seizures and keep him out of stuff.he's a handfull sometimes but will sit in the garage and watch while i work on bikes for hours.if he needs a ct scan i'm going to try and get it done this week.the neurologist said today the problem is in the brain for sure.i just can't tell you guys how i'm feeling right now-all i know is this is a great bunch of guys(and gals).anyway thanks for thinking of my buddy and me,i hope to have it covered but if you must, either way Ron said is ok though i don't feel right about it, if he is saved....... that's all i can say right now.hard to watch the little guy and write when i'm all emotional like this- Thanks Guys You Are Something Special.  , my address is   Ric Emmal  2930 W. Yorkshire St.     Tucson,  Az.    85742       my email address  is            [email protected]

Gavin, Thanks for kicking this in gear.

I just looked into the the 12-05 Meeting Minutes and the report states that the POG has 404 active members.

Count me in on the fund drive for Mert.
Hang in there Mert ol' buddy.

Outstanding idea gavin. A man should not have to choose between that which he loves.
In the old volunteer spirit, count this Tennessean in.
