Oprah & Kristian

[tunetown]

Wow, I'm stunned. Absolutely wonderful.

In case you missed it, Oprah has given Kris $250,000.

I'm lost for words. Good on ya Oprah.

Congrats to Kris and Family. The human spirit is alive and well.

Cheers

[tunetown]

I should clarify that it was donated courtesy of Microsoft and Xbox.

[mylesgm]

wohoo!!!

[rick]

Stunning news in every sense of the word

[jon.l.hunter]

Good on ya Oprah and get well Kris

[DwaneHollands]

Spin out man!

I was reading the article on Oprah about the 250K donation on yahoo and I was like, "I wonder who it was donated to..."

Then I see Christian and Rachel Anderson!

"Hang on a minute...I know that guy!"

<insert sound of my mind blowing>

I'm sure you're very busy at the moment Kris, but a thousand congratulations...or should I say 250,000!

P.S. Yahoo spelt his name wrong, it's Kristian with a K guys! (yeah, I was a little offended that they stuffed up his spelling. lol)

[SteveL]

That is fantastic!!

[danander11]

I'm grinning from ear to ear for him and his family.. God has truly blessed them.

[Chinagraf]

Nice one Oprah. You go gurl.

[Alistair]

Incredible! I hope that takes off a lot of money stress and you can focus on getting well and spending time with the family Kristian.

[graemeh]

Amazing news. Congrats Kris and family....What an life changing Christmas present.

Hey Rick, if Oprah ever wants to join the forum, give her one of those big valves in her avatar pic ok.

[Mickstape]

I am also quite surprised about this. Never in my life would i have ever even mentioned the words "thanks" and "Oprah" in the same sentence.

My faith in the human spirit has been restored a fraction. I hope this helps you with your problems Kris, it should get you more of those treatments anyway.

It's a shame that TR forum goers and the initial donation to Kris for that treatment wasn't mentioned though.

It does not matter a whit, i wrote away for a nomination for this forum to the humane society, after seeing that all you lot chucked in it made me realise that the audio community
is a very close knit bunch of caring people.

So yes, Good on you, Microsoft, Xbox, Oprah and all you Turtle Rockers,

You make me proud to be an Australian right now.

Now will someone put that woman on a plane, i've had enough of the circus already.

[Chris H]

nice one! Thats great news.

[vanderlae]

That is brilliant, wow. I cannot stand Oprah to be honest like many of us, the shrill of her voice alone raises my blood pressure, nevertheless this is an astonishing gesture and her team that would have been looking into this should be congratulated. Awesome.

[NYMo]

Hi there,

All the best Kris for your treatment...no financial probs now !

Cheers

[Futureman]

[Ben M]

Magic happens

[Alastair Reynolds]

Well, I sit here too with a tear in my eye, just as I had when I saw Kris and Rachel on the news last night. This is what makes life worth it. Now for gods sake Kris , stop mucking about and get better

[GlennS]

...all because you made something beautiful for your wife, and in doing so you made our world a little bit better too.
Still praying for a clean bill of health!

[walding]

WOW

I'm so glad for you now and I hope it helps you gain a clean bill of health.

[Senad]

Fantastic stuff...My wife told me this on the phone last night...(" hey you know that guy from that website you losers go to ...blah,blah)....made my night at work a very pleasent one..Good on you Kris and good luck with everything.

[obutcher]

Nice one Kristian!

[mics]

that's awesome. It is great to feel a helping hand when you need it most. I know it's only money but i hope the treatments that it pays for spell a long life for you.

If there is any way we at beesneez can ever help, please let me know.

cheers

[musikwerks]

Thanks everyone.

It's certainly been a wild ride. Have to keep mum about it until the show airs but wanted to say thanks for all the well wishes.

[Sammas]

I read about this a few days ago in an old newspaper, while I was waiting for a coffee in the local coffee shop. You couldn't wipe the smile off my face all day.

All the best, Kris! Have a fantastic Christmas with the fam!
