--> I have favor to ask of anyone who lives in or near Tyler, TX. My girlfriend's father is in a hospice out there. His kidney and lung cancer have taken a turn for the worse and he has maybe days to weeks left to live.

We live on the west coast. The American Cancer Society is paying for my girlfriend's airfare and hotel to give her a chance to see her dad one last time. The problem is that the she doesn't have a driver's license so she can't rent a car, and we don't have enough money to pay for a cab, or for me to go with her.

She'll be flying into Tyler, TX some time next week, and the hospice is car ride away from there. We're weighing our options and the only thing I can think of is to ask if any of my fellow electronic musicians would be willing and able to give her a ride in the morning and in the evening for two days during the week next week. Like before work and after work.

We'd be able to cover gas money, but that's it. If anyone out there can help, please PM me for details. It would mean the world to us.

Thanks in advance.

I only know one person in Texas and I have no idea where they are in relation to Tyler. I'll do my best to email and find out though.
