Ok....think I have found a solution for you all having problems placing donations online. It seems the site does not support all kinds of different browsers (initially used Safari/Mac OSX), but then tried with explorer which worked fine.

Lotīs of success to you all in this effort and not least to Mrs. Arguello (Haynes) whishing her a speddy recovery.

For all of you negative about this thread, if you yourselfs have childeren it canīt be to differcult to place yourselfs in Mr. Haynes position. He surely once held his newborn daughter in his hands praying to god that she would live a happy and healthy life. A parents worst nightmare must be to outlive your own childeren, and it seems that has been the tragic fact as regards to his son. Letīs hope our support can prevent that development to repeat with his daughter, and let her live on to love and care for her own childeren.

Another aspect one might add for those of us fortunate enough to live in Europe, is that the American medical system is only good for those with enormous funds to draw from....hardly available to the average airlinepilot....surely not if you are retired. One should also bare in mind that the american health insurances are more of a headache than a financial support. You will find yourself struggeling just to get the support that you are entitled to and have paid direly for over many years.

Once again my best wishes for the Haynes family.
