I just saw this thread. My prayers go out to Megan as well as a check for the raffle. If I"m too late don"t worry about it, just cash the check. Hang in there Megan, I"ve been through a trip bypass and valve repair, its really not asa bad as you think when its in the rear view mirror. Stay tough lady.

I have not been on steam and fly lately and saw this news. The good lord has a plan and I hope she makes a great recovery. I had a heart attack in February and this story hit home! As I mentioned I hope she makes the recovery that I did! God bless

Just a FYI ScreamandFly Family. The VODBA (Virginia Outlaw Drag Boat Association) Final Race for 2018 is approaching FAST!!! We would love to Raffle the Benelli Supernova Shotgun at the race to benefit the Megan Franzoso Fund. But like the tickets read "Winner will be drawn after 100 tickets are sold". So far Screamandfly members have purchased a total of 6 tickets??? This membership is over 30k strong with just over 10k being active every week. Yet this thread alone has been visited by 1725 members with 49 comments. There are two other threads that are related to this matter and they have been visited a total of 4322 times with 102 comments. Thats a total of 6046 visits and 132 comments. Yet out of over 6000 visits and 132 comments This family cant do any better than to purchase 6 tickets @20.00 each for a chance to win a $800.00 Shotgun with Case???????

Megan Update as of 10/21/2018 As most know Megan has been moved to a rehab facility closer to home 10 minutes vs 1 1/2 hrs. While she still has her feed tube in and the Trake She has better arm mobility, Smiling alot and tries to laugh even though she sounds like a Goose because of the Trake. Yesterday she walked about 70 feet so she is making baby step progress. There was a benefit Spaghetti Dinner yesterday at one of the EMS branches. A group of 50 Bikers from a local club showed up and ate. The Benefit raised about 8k.

Another more detailed Megan Update 10/22/18 9pm- We continue to have good news to report. Megan continues to make forward progress. The staff at the Rehab Hospital have actually gotten her to begin walking, with assistance and a walker. It is unbelievable to think where we were about 5 weeks ago and how far she has come. Although she still cannot speak, she attempts to spell things out using a sign board, pointing to letters. We are able to get her to smile a lot, even laughing occasionally (usually as we make fun of her mother!! Sorry Deb!). Today, Megan created a bit of panic with the nursing staff as she decided to pull out her tracheotomy tube on her own! Until they realized that she was in no distress and quite entertained by all the activity, the decided to leave it out (they were planning to pull it this week anyway).
On a side note, yesterday's Spaghetti Dinner was a huge success. The family wishes to extend our sincere appreciation to Berkeley PBA and their EMT's for hosting the event and a special thanks to Zach Kolas for leading the charge to organize this amazing event. The number of local businesses that have donated prizes to be auctioned off, has been amazing.Bud Conner "Heathen" "Defending Our Constitution"

Last update cool as hell Bud. Got a feeling this kid is a fighter and is going to be fine. I received my tickets yesterday. Today I sent you money for 1 more ticket from a guy in my breakfast group. I added a note in the comment area and if you have any questions feel free to call or pm or text or carrier pigeon or whatever it takes. You should be proud for your effort.
