Since I created this site around November of 2005, I’ve had several of you ask if you could donate, somehow, somewhere. I wasn’t sure how to do that. What I did know is that millions of patients have suffered, and still suffer…and this site was to help educate you on what we have learned…and that education, in turn, could be taken to your doctors on how to stop the madness.

But, I found out that STTM can have a way for those that appreciate and use it to donate money towards the cost of HAVING THIS SITE UP—towards the hosting fees. Yes, STTM costs me. So…at the bottom of any non-forum page, just like this one, you will see a small rectangular button that says: HOSTING DONATIONS ACCEPTED You can donate any amount–high, low or in between–to the company that hosts STTM. It’s totally your decision.

Yes, it helps me, but it certainly underscores that STTM is “everyones” site, not just mine. So for those of you who have really wanted to help, and to feel a part of an important worldwide patient revolution, there it is. And thanks. :)

    It was just a week or so ago that I chimed in on one of the forums in agreement of this site accepting voluntary donations. I really didn’t expect it to happen but just found out that it’s a go!! I am thrilled and grateful to have a venue to give back. Some day I will have experience to offer but I’m not there today. :) Just LOTS of questions!
    Hats off to all moderators and especially to Deborah for her thoroughness, patience and kindness… Carol

    Delighted to be able to donate, wish it could be a hundred times more. You have been a great help to me, and I am sure to many, many others. The information you provide is priceless. I wish I’d had it 15 years ago. I wish my Mom had it, may she rest in peace.
