They are treated like kids, and not cottled because of their sickness. In American a lot of children would be helped if TV, video games, and etc. was taken away. Most kids would give their eye teeth to get to spend a week on a Ranch, ride horses, garden and do as they do in the country. I for one think Imus is one of the rare people in public life who will put his money where is mouth is. If I were unfortunate enough to have a sick child (thank goodness I have been spared) I would love for them to have the opportunity of a lifetime. Denco

How is he putting his money where his mouth is. He paid $1 million to get a $20 million dollar vacation home. The article in the WSJ says that only 100 kids go there in a year. Paul Newmans Hole in the wall Gang, has 10 times the number of kids going through. Why is Imus's ranch so expensive? Look at Architectural Digest at what his amster bedroom looks like. He and his family vacation there for free and never reimburse the charity.
He has a broadcast studio there that was paid for our of charity funds. Do you not see any problem with this? Couldn't he just stroke a check for $27k to each kids family to pay for hospital expense and a trip to Disney?
