Maybe you could make a list here of the unclaimed prizes and who won them and see if it can get sorted over the next week. Then make a public announcement if they are not claimed by a certain date you will redraw the prizes. Just incase some regularly read this thread but missed reading they won.Eliot Rosewater said:There are a couple of people who did not list their e-mail address or forum name when donating, but indicated it was for the raffle. We've sent several messages to them through the GoFundMe site, but haven't heard back. Not sure what to do with the prizes if we don't ever hear back from them. Any suggestions?

Great idea. It will require a little more organization on my part. Things have been so hectic lately.Natashapearljamfan said:

BTW, Holly is doing pretty well. Surgery went well, she was on two crutches for a couple of weeks, then one crutch for about a month after that. Her right hip seems to be fabulous, although, it has now allowed her to feel the pain from her left hip. Her right hip, before the replacement, was "garbage," according to her doctor. Her left has initial signs of the disease, which is some weakness and bone deterioration. Hopefully she won't need surgery on that one for a few years down the road.
Her biggest struggle right now physically is that she had to return to work about two weeks ago. Before surgery she was working full-time as a pharmacy tech. She's on her feet all day, working four 10-hour shifts per week. Now that she's returned, she tried one shift and couldn't work the rest of the week because she was hurting so bad. So they've cut her to part-time, which is great for her, but doesn't help with finances – especially since she's been dropped from insurance. That is all secondary, however. Health-wise, she's doing much better. And if she it turns out she isn't able to get back to where she needs to be in order to be on her feet 40 hours a week, there are other jobs out there. Sacrifices can certainly be made.
So there's a quick update. A few of you have asked. I'll keep you posted as things progress and I'll try to get a list of unclaimed prizes together in the next few days.
Thank you all so much for all you've done to help us through a very difficult time. The love and support we've had is just incredible.

way to go Holly!! You've recovered much faster than I did!! Lol then again I had broken foot knee and collar bone on top of the hip being crushed, so that's probably why. Heard back from CJMinor, he got the bootlegs, safely. And Susan bit her KC poster.. Did you get the book Elliot?0
