    Put it this way, for my childs' life i would go to the presidents house and put a gun over his head for him to give me money. for my childs' life i would have no limits, you name it and i'll do. if those are my only options i wouldnt even think about it, even if it means giving up my whole life, it really wouldnt matter cuz my child would be safe.

    i love my baby, and i would never want anything bad to happen to him.

    look at him, would you want anything to happen to this beauty?

    There are a couple of problems with you question. First, there would have to be some agency that would help fund this surgery. they are out there.

    Second, i know of no one place, except maybe an armored car, that has that much cash at one time.

    And, yes, i would do whatever it takes to save my child.

    Wouldn't everyone?

    I would, if need be, sell myself (my kidney, my liver, my eye, blood whatever) to get required money for my Childs wellbeing. Robbing the bank will be way up in the list.

    I can't believe there wouldn't be another option. Publicity works wonders.

    But assuming there were no other avenues to pursue, I faced with this dillema: Do I lose my child because I can't afford to care for him or her or do I save his or her life by illegal and possibly violent means? What lesson will I have taught my child? That life is important above all else...integrity, compassion, honesty, ethics. Aren't these what make up a guality life?

    I don't have children and I've never been put in this sopt. I don't honestly know what I'd do, but I'd try to take the high road wherever it lead me.

    I would try and pull a John Q at a hospital. But I don't think I could be as successful as Denzil Washington because he's such a dad gum good ACTOR!!

    Although I'd try and get some good TV coverage and then maybe I could put away my squirt gun.

    I would DO ANYTHING for my children!!!! I would have to do what ever it took if I just could not get the help. Better behind bars with a child alive then sitting with empty arms.

    I don't have children, but if I did, I'm sure I would, without one ounce of hesitation.
