Mr. Trice, Yes, it is a rather unique item and must have you being a bit sad to part with it (especially if it's in good running order). I believe you that this is to benefit a child ... if that's so, then more power to you ... I am a father of 3, and I think anything to help a child is great. Good luck, and my hat's off to you for helping a child not your own. I completely hear you about the medical establishment. My girlfriend is Chinese (soon to be a US Citizen here), and her mother visited for about 10 months last year from China. While she was here, she twice needed hospitalization (unforseen) for heart problems. It worked out OK, and the kind lady went back to China (missed by all of us), but now my girlfriend is stuck with a $30,000 tab. OUCH!! They don't want to hear about it, just "show them the money." Good luck with your endeavour, and I hope the little girl recovers also. Mark
