Epoman made plans for this site to continue on long after his passing, although no-one has a crystal ball, I don't think any of us expected his passing to be so soon.

Premium membership was part of his plan to carry out his dream of keeping this site up and running. Premium membership money goes directly to keep this site up and running only.

Thank you for helping the Admin team, in keeping that dream alive, with your donations.
If anyone would like to Donate to IHD to help keep us online and up to date in technology please consider Premium Membership.

$60.00 USA per year through paypal or check by mail would be the best way to do this.

Contact kitkatz or Okarol if you would like to contribute. The best benefit to premium membership is helping to keep IHD online as a resource for anyone affected by ESRD.

I am asking for your help.

Remember all Admins and Moderators are volunteers and do not get paid to be here for you! 

The total financial burden falls on Trina. (Epomans Widow) Lets help her out  a little as she is a single parent now and still keeps this site online as a tribute to Epoman.

PLEASE begin your premium membership BY PAYPAL OR CHECK.

Send check made out to Trina Halcomb  send by snail mail to kitkatz-Katherine Soto, PM me and I will PM my address.

Here is the paypal link to donate for premium membership http://ihatedialysis.com/donate.htm

I know its lazy but I'd be much more likely to PayPal money if I can see/deduce the email address.  Requesting an email address via a pm is another hurdle.

So I'd point everyone to the donate link which has the PayPal link, which I assume is ok?

I donated via that link.

My suggestion was to include a clear link or instructions on where to send PayPal money on kitkatz's first post.

That would be far superior than relying on people contacting each other via PM (or finding the link themselves as I did).  Especially since the link can be found via the home page (which I never visit) and thus is public and the PayPal email is visible once you click the link.  I for one browse a lot via an iPhone and would find it not worth the effort to PM someone to get a donation contact.

Thank you for donating to Ihatedilaysis.com and for your suggestion. I have added the link to the bottom of my post.  It will make it easier. I am also going to add it to the premium membership letter I send out as a reminder.

If you will notice our site has not been down for a long long time.  Yeah!   :thumbup;  That is because we have a new server and have to pay a little more for the automatic fixes.  Sluff is on the road a lot and can't fix every little hiccup.  If you can't afford $60 for the premium membership you can always just donate what you can to keep the site up and running.  There are just a lot of behind the scenes upgrades and so on.    We don't have an accountant because that would cost us even MORE.  We just try and pay the bills and we need help doing that. 

Thank you for your support.

I have sent reminders by PM to premium members who might like to renew for the months of April, May and June.

Thank you if you responded already through Paypal or mail.

I appreciate all of our premium members on iHD.com. 

In August, the 10th anniversary of IHD.com, there will be a drawing for a free gift for all updated and new premium members.

Please consider becoming a premium member. It is one way IHD.com can stay online for everyone who is affected by kidney disease.
