We can now say that his story has gone Global! His story has reached Australia, Canada and Great Britain. Safeway Grocery has stepped up, and donated the first $10,000 for James' surgery. Starting in July, they will have donation canisters available in every check stand in four states.
Soon you can donate directly at the register of the local Kingsgate Safeway and currently at the Bank of Alaska inside the store. We are having trouble with Bank Of America, but it should be cleared up by Fri. Please be patient.
James story was aired on CNN and ABCnews.go.com with the story KOMO 4 news filmed on May 28th. Check out CNN.com and ABCnews.go.com and KOMOnews.com to watch the video or read the transcript which includes a little more information.
We are so thankful for all the comments, they inspire us, and keep us going. I was just talking with James and he was reading through all your notes. He is SO excited about how much has happened in the past 2 days, and is looking forward to his life altering surgeries. We will get a video of him talking to you uploaded soon.

THANK YOU!
Katie - Are you checking your other blog for the notes we left you?
Awesome. Glad the site is updated. I will be sending all my readers at Qlog your way. Thom Quinn
Very inspirational what is going on here. Count me in! James best of luck in reaching the goal to get your surgeries! Hope my donation helps.
I saw this clip on CNN because it was one of the headline reports. One teeny problem with the donations...it took a bit of googling before I could find where/how to donate. If you haven't already, register the blog with technorati, and get some bloggers to link to the page to give it some "authority".
Best wishes to you James.
Can you add a "Donation Tracker" so we can see how close to the goal we are getting? It would be AWESOME to watch as the $$$$ piles up!
I just saw James' story on CNN and was astonished not only by the generous hearts of Komo and the world, but James amazing strife and charisma. I would die for a grocer like that in my town. I will be spreading the word and letting..wait..giving the world the opportunity to meet James. Keep up the good work!
I wanted to hold off on posting this link until I spoke to Katie first but I am afraid that James is loosing out on donations -http://www.friendsofjamesoneal.com/
All I can say is WOW. James you are an amazing person. Your story on CNN.com really touched me. Prayers going out to you to reach your goal.
just saw james' story today on CNN, and was very touched, will definitley be sending a donation.. how wonderful to see a community with so much heart! James: I wish there were more folks in the world with your courageous spirit and positive outlook, you are an inspiration to us all to be proud of who we are, and to make the most of the life we are given.. thank you.
Dear Katty: FINALLY! someone could do something. I tried long time ago to see if a talk show could help. Oprah never replied. Maury said this isn't what he has in his show...etc. etc. I feel so much for James, he inspires me when I have hard pain because he goes like any normal person to work and very proud of it. I sent him once in a while lottery tickets anonymously, but he never wan... I'll keep on doing that anyway.
Good for you and good for all the people that helps.
