    Looking for Outdoor Laser Projector for Christmas

    Thanks for that. I think I found them but they seem to be static instead of rotating. The rotating part is kind of important to me because when you shine them in the tree it looks like little fireflies moving around or something. Very mesmerizing. Thank you anyway for the reply.

    Looking for Outdoor Laser Projector for Christmas

    So we bought a few of these guys: LFLG1505-1 Color (Green) Laser with Continously Rotating Light Pattern We love the rotating effect when it's shining up in the trees, but we've had an issue with them dying and we really wished they were a little brighter. Can anyone make any recommendations...

    Pretty much still the same. The blind spot doesn't seem to be getting any bigger, at least. And the avatar doesn't bother me lol :p

    Just so everyone is aware, the fundraiser is over. I really appreciate everyone who helped contribute, but because I did not raise the necessary funds, and because of some concerns raised with the clinic I was seeking, I will not be pursuing the procedure. I have sent emails through the...

    So I was looking at a linkback to this post here: F2 Anonboard :: Had to Burn a Kid with My 1000mw Laser Pointer on the 405 South Today I don't know if what he is saying is true or not, but either way, I hope karma pays him a visit soon... :gun:

    Well, I spoke with GiveForward and they basically told me there's nothing I can do to extend the fundraiser. However, I can create a new one and just lower the goal amount by the amount received. I will probably just do this after the original one ends. I'll update here if there's any changes to...

    Hit in eye with 1000mw 445nm blue laser

    So, I was logging in to extend the end date of the fundraiser, and received this gut-wrenching message: So, I'm not really sure how to handle this. I will contact GiveForward to see if I can roll it into a new fundraiser or something. Given this issue, and the fact several people seem to think...

    Hi, guyfawkes, thanks for your suggestion! Is this who you are talking about? Stem Cell Therapy || Stem Cell Treatments || Adult Stem Cell Cinics || Accepting Patients Now || Medical Information - Panama City, Panama What success did they have? Was there an article you read or something? I would...

    Thanks a ton, Alennn. I think I'm pretty much stuck where I'm at for now, in terms of recovery. But, I'm staying hopeful that this procedure will happen and work. Only time can tell. ;) Thanks for the support!

    Yes, I understand where you both are coming from. The one flat price sounds sketchy, but if you think about it - it's the same procedure for every patient, it's just administered differently. Why should the cost be so different? There are also very few stem cell clinics inside the US. I am open...

    Thank you very much Escher, Sid, and everyone else for the generous donations that have been received so far! I never expected this much reaction. For those of you who may be wondering, the "deadline" on the donation site is not valid. The site forced me to put a deadline, but it can be...

    Just wanted to let you all know that I should now have the donation site configured to accept paypal, if you wish to donate via paypal. Thanks again, everyone! https://www.giveforward.com/fundraiser/1ym3/stem-cell-treatment-for-laser-damaged-eye

    Hit in eye with 1000mw 445nm blue laser

    I honestly can't remember exactly how long it was - it's been so long ago. Perhaps a month or so before the redness in my eye died down and vision returned to mostly normal - it wasn't very quick. I still have a feeling like there's higher pressure or as if someone is slightly pushing my eye. I...

    I fully understand. I actually sent several questions to their clinic several months ago to try to get some insight on possible risks and other things. Here is the questions I asked and the answers from their associate Josh, who was actually very helpful and detailed in his answers: (His...

    Wow... I had no idea there was a fee involved and they wouldn't accept PayPal.... That's very underhanded.:mad: I apologize about that. I actually chose GiveForward because of horror stories I read about using PayPal donation, but I may can set up a donation site with PayPal also for those who...

    You people are incredible! I never expected this kind of reaction. I was starting to accept that I would never be able to afford this treatment. You all have given me hope. I truly appreciate what you all are doing, and hope that one day your generosity is returned to you. I believe it will be...

    Per some people's suggestion, I set up a donation site here: https://www.giveforward.com/fundraiser/1ym3/stem-cell-treatment-for-laser-damaged-eye I really appreciate any donations you all are able to give. It is my hope that this procedure is successful and gives others that have this...

    Unfortunately, no. :( When they performed the vitrectomy, it removed the blood you see on my avatar, but the burned/scarred retina tissue is still unchanged to this day. I still have the same sized blind spot (scotoma). I really appreciate it! I may look into setting up some kind of donation...

    It was directly in front of me, about maybe 2 feet from my eye.

    Wow, you guys are incredible! :) It's very nice to see people genuinely care about others. ghosty87 - I really feel for your problem. Even if it may not be as severe, I feel that any sudden and permanent vision loss is hard to cope with. Maybe we can both get treatments and they'll give us a...
