I said it before, I'll say it again, I'm pretty dissapointed by the band's lack of reaction. Most of the things that Gina have done should've be done by the band, they should definitely show stronger support, I find it a bit weak so far....

you have no idea how they're reacting to all this and what they're doing behind the scenes.

all we know is that they're trying to get the album done. and with all the whining about the album taking too long, I take it you don't rather want them to put the album on hold and take care of their brother Chi instead.

you people are like spoiled little kids who's never happy with what you get.

This is not about the album, this is about Chi. I'm just saying that things like oneloveforchi.com should have been put up by the band. I really feel that the situation have been pushing forward since Gina came into the scene, that's all. Things like that should be up front not "behind the scenes" btw....

thanks love...

chino did call me.. i missed his call and so i called him back... he was appreciative of everything i was doing...

maybe they do have plans of their own... but they have not said anything yet... but ya.. if they do.. i think everyone would love to know.. no need to keep it under wraps... but we don't always get what we want... so onward...

we will see soon enough tho i guess..

one love for chi,

I welled up from reading Chi's aunt's blog... It's so amazing how far he has come!! It's not that long ago when Chi opening his eyes was major news  :)
I admire his family so much, they really are amazing.

I feel for him though... So frustrating to have a lot to say and not be able to make yourself understood... My prayers and thoughts are with you Chi, as long as it takes...

Great post she did!

"The next morning, Jeanne and I were asking him to move his legs, and he lift his left leg so up that I dont think i'm flexible enough to do that. It was awesome, we were so happy and he did it couple more times."

Love that part!

me too... looks like the chamber should arrive to chi on wed. so he will be starting treatment next week! we (oneloveforchi donaters) also bought a digital video camera for chi's room that will record up to like 37 hours of video.. much needed to capture all these little victories on tape to show the doctors.

much love,
gina

Why don't other bands/festivals have booths for donations going to Chi? Or have a benifit with people like Korn(and all those that have toured with Family Values),Thrice,Glassjaw etc. To me it seems like it's the least they could do. Is there any way to get in touch with promoters of shows or what not to see if something like that could be set up? People should email local radio stations and see if booths can be set up at shows.

chi's brother is in talks with korn... we are also going to put out a press release about looking for bands to volunteer to do a benefit.. and as soon as someone from the cheng's is ready to do interviews i have someone ready to get the word out to radio stations. the promoter from the tones first album offered to help me promote to his contacts for free. we just have to get all of our ducks in a row.. but everything is being worked on now.

it will be an awesome show once everything comes together.. and should raise the much needed funds for chi's much needed rehab therapy.

can't wait to see it happen...

one love for chi,

But is this one show or a tour? I would hope a tour because many people can't make it to one specific location.
