I am hoping to raise funds to help maintain the spirits of a very brave young boy, and member of the Windfola community.

Chance was diagnosed with bone cancer back in October 2007, and since then has been undergoing various treatments to fight it.

I am hoping many of you will join with me, either actively participating or supporting through donations to help do something for Chance.

Chance loves castles and all that medieval stuff, and I'm sure is just one of the reasons he was attracted to LOTRO. So with this in mind I would like to try and raise enough money to help him and his family visit Great Britain and see some real-life castles! So that would be the dream target, but we have a couple of others in case we fall short. For about half the cost, we could send Chance and family to DisneyWorld in Orlando for a week. Lastly, and a target I'm sure we can meet is that of a few hundreds bucks, which could be used to buy something fun like a Nintendo Wii or DS to help keep his spirits high.

So what am I going to do? Well, I am planning on doing all 13 Books back to back on Saturday 26th (assuming Book 13 is out by then). I'm guessing it will take me at least 18 hours if everything runs smoothly, but could easily take 24 hours if we don't have a Hunter or the group is poorly balanced etc for some of the chapters requiring a full fellowship.

I need two forms of support from the Windfola community - obviously one involves cash pledges for the completion, and I need people to run through the books with me - you don't have to do them all, but I do need at lest 1 person per book who hasn't done any of it so we can run it in full!
