This is by no means a personal attack but you mention Zug being some famous person (I didn't know that and it really means nothing to me!).
Let's not go down this road again. It all came down to the amount of followers Zug has which went to ATEOS's head. He assumed it was a celebrity interacting with him. Anyway, this has been put to bed now and I'm really annoyed at the impact all of this pointless arguing has had on this thread. There was no need for any of it, so let's not allow this to happen again.
We also have an ENT specialist here if I'm not wrong? What has he done?
What can he do? Or what do you want him to do? He didn't have to sign up here, and he has helped answer some questions (via PM) for me which was very useful, and I really appreciated it. He has a pretty severe case of tinnitus too, so he may ask you the same question: what are you doing to help him? You seem very preoccupied with what everybody else is doing, and again this is not personal, just an observation. I know how this condition can frustrate, and crush ones spirit, so I'm not blaming you for being like this.
Even people like medical doctors could do so much more.
Sure they have a network of contacts that could be used.
I have many close friends who are Drs, consultants, dentists, etc, and they have donated and shared the campaign. There isn't much more they can do, but again, I was really appreciative. Their network reach has exposed this campaign to many more Drs around the U.K. In reality, it's unlikely that many in their network will donate (because human nature requires a personal association to give, usually) but this has markedly raised the profile of this campaign. More eyes equals more awareness.
But I guess this is back to square one question: how to get people involved?
I think we need to get more people sharing this on their social media and also asking for it to be shared again. Let everyone know what a great person Danny was, and how raising money in his name can help raise not only awareness for this condition, but also money to help research it.
It's a 100% team effort, and if we don't all get behind it, then we cannot maximise its effectiveness. Like I said above, it doesn't mean we all have to donate (if we can't afford to, or if other reasons stop us), but nothing should stop everyone from sharing it far and wide.
I apologise for yesterday, but when you've spent hours upon hours contacting all kinds of organisations, and people, trying to raise the profile on this, to then have someone question you unnecessarily, I found it to be highly disrespectful and incredibly rude. And for no reason at all. Nothing was gained from it whatsoever.
We've turned a page now so I hope we can unite on this and honour Danny like he deserves.
