As I write this, Grayson’s parents have received $13,746 towards the $30,000 needed to get him out of the hospital and home. It’s important to raise this money because: (1) he’s had infections while at the hospital requiring additional open heart surgery; and (2) he didn’t get to spend his first Christmas at home. 
Think about that. It’s heartbreaking. He was in a hospital fighting an infection after having open heart surgery. While you and your family members got to dress up as Santa and watch the baby open gifts, Grayson was in a hospital. 

First, I want to say that the $13,746 raised so far is a tremendous amount. I want to thank everyone who retweeted my incessant tweets trying to get the word out. I want to thank those that made donations as well. With that said, it’s frustrating. It’s frustrating because donations after the first day were around $8,000. Less than half that amount was raised in the subsequent four days. I’ve been sitting around trying to figure out how I can help more. I came up with a giveaway. 

Right now in my possession, I have the following items to give away: (1) a David Wright Oyo Figure; and 

 (2) a PBS style Mets tote bag

Both were purchased with my own money, and neither of the aforementioned companies are sponsors. If you’re interested in the giveaway, here are the rules:

1. There is no purchase necessary. 
2. One winner will be randomly selected. 
3. To enter, you must either RT the Tweet containing this article and/or enter a donation on the webpage leaving MetsDaddy and your Twitter handle in the comments section. 
4. If you RT and enter a donation, you will be deemed to have entered twice. There is no minimum donation required. However, only your first donation will count as an entry. All subsequent donations will welcome but not considered for the giveaway. 
5. Prior RT and donations do not qualify for the giveaway. Only RT and donations made after this is posted on Twitter will qualify. 

On Friday, January 22nd at noon, I will selecte two winners at random. If the donations at that time meet the $30,000 goal, I will do an additional giveaway. If you want to make a donation, please click this link. 

Again, thank you for all that you’ve done so far to help my friend’s son. Let’s finish the job and let his parents bring Grayson home.
