| 5/30/04- My name is Bill Bleecker and I am Doug's primary Care Provider. I spend over 85 hours a week helping Douglas so I know him very, very well. Doug has many needs, but of immediate concern is securing reliable transportation for Doug. His 1988 mini-van needs and it just isn't safe to take Doug anywhere, especially in the 110 degree heat! He's due now for his next doctor's appt and it's a hazard to take him there. He just can't ride comfortably/safely in a regular car. Doug's greatest joy in life is to get out and see something besides the cieling in his room. We are seeking help of all sorts; volunteers to help get this organization and website together, and fundraising advice and support. If you are interested please contact me at: 8/2/04 update- The van's A/C has now been fixed! |

| 8/21/05 - Well Doug has had two of his wisdom teeth pulled and is recovering well. I think it was worse for me! Anyway, he seems to be feeling much better without those impacted wisdom teeth! I have gone thru this site and tried to fix all of the pictures... enjoy! |
| Next month Doug goes on his first Cruise!!!!! (9/12/05 - 9/16/05) 12/14/05- started photo page 7 for cruise photos |
| 11/13/05: Time for an update! The most exciting thing to report is that I have decided to go further into debt and buy a mini-van so I can continue to take Doug out of his room and into the world. His 17 yr old mini-van just wasn't working out to be safe and reliable anymore. I've also aquired a pop-up camper and have spent most of my 'free' time making the van and camper usable for us. Here is a pic of the new set-up... |

| ATTENTION PLEASE: I AM VERY SAD TO ANNOUNCE THAT I AM NO LONGER CARING FOR DOUG, SINCE, DUE TO A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH HIS GUARDIAN. I had to quit. I was there for Doug 7 days a week! and EVERY NIGHT! I WILL TRY AND KEEP THIS PAGE AS A MONUMENT TO DOUG. Thanks to all our fans for your support during this difficult time. Perhaps one day someone will care about Doug as deeply as I do. When that day comes they will certainly turn to me for his deepest secrets. For now he is hanging by the threads that I created to help him survive. As of now, I can only report that he might still be surviving!. (12-17-07). I haven't been able to see him due to his Guardian's callousness. That is a sad situation, not worthy of this tribute to Doug, and it will never be forgiven nor forgotten. How can any one person do so much wrong to a kid like Doug? Hopefully we can find out and prevent this from ever happening again. I am willing to head any foundation that will seek to prevent this kind of cruelty to the Developementally Disabled. |
| SINCE 2005 WE HAVE RECIEVED ZERO CONTRIBUTIONS BY THE VIEWERS OF THIS SITE. I WOULD LIKE TO THANK ALL THOSE WHO DID HELP WITH THE OLD VAN AND THE DISNEY CAMPAIGNS. DOUG THANKS YOU EVEN MORE!!!!!!!! , |
