This one I believe.

Canon - EOS Rebel T3i 18.0-Megapixel DSLR Camera with 18-55mm Lens - Black - Rebel T3i with 18-55mm Lens

Plus the telephoto lens to go with it.

[RolandofGilead]

Thanks for the links. Sadly I think she has most of those items.

[Xsoldier]

does she have lightroom?

[Xsoldier]

Adobe Light room and a 2TB external hard drive for all her photos would be a rad gift (either or both).

Dude, the LAST thing you need to worry about is mailing a toy.

Concentrate on your family. They need you now.

Wishing and hoping for all the best.....

My heart sank as I read this. I am truly sorry Al. I pray that things improve.

This past Friday my daughter went for her second chemo treatment. When they tested her vitals and her blood levels, they noticed that something was seriously awry. She was rushed to the emergency room for more testing. Several hours later the results came back, and things had made a turn for the worst. She has acute renal failure. In English, that means her kidneys have almost completely shut down on her. Yet another side effect of the lupus.

She's had another blood transfusion, and has been on dialysis once a day since Friday, but we're being told that's potentially not enough to sustain her/keep her alive. In short, there's a high probability that she'll need a kidney transplant. I'm a match blood-wise, and I'd give her all of my organs if I could, but for now she just needs a healthy kidney.

So I have to go through a few tests to determine if my kidney(s) is/are healthy enough for donation. If I'm not (and I pray to whatever higher power there is that I am), she'll be on the transplant list, and there's no guarantee that she'll get the kidney in time if it comes to that.

Paul and Dolf, I'll get your stuff out to you as soon as I can. I just need some time to get my head straight. Again.
