Guys, the stickers and shirts ARE on their website.
I have to say something, as I am very angry and offended by some of the comments made online in various threads on various sites regarding fundraising for Joe. Even though the posts may not have intentionally been made to sound somewhat hateful, negative, or insinuating that Blowsion, or any of Joe's other supporters isn't/haven't been supportive of Joe, that's the way they're coming off to many (I was alerted to this post by four individuals who found the comments offensive/hurtful as well).
That being said, please know Joe is going through a lot right now - and his family, close friend and sponsors (who may as well be family they are so close) are going right along with him on this ride. It's been horrific, and quite frankly, draining, exceptionally time-consuming - and very depressing. That's resulted in it taking a little longer than apparently some of you thought it should to get product on websites.
I myself have fallen behind and even been asked to pause for a bit, in posting updates on Joe's progress/prognosis. I'm pretty sure if any of you were going through what we're going through, you'd be able to understand. I do owe you an apology for not just saying "I cannot talk about this right now." Please, please don't hold this against any of the multitude of folks who are doing what they can to support Joe both emotionally as well as financially.
I also have to say I know for a fact that JOE HAS ALWAYS GOTTEN 100% of the sales price for the skis Blowsion has sold for him after he was done competing on them. Blowsion has NEVER profitted from, and WILL NEVER profit a single dime from the sale of his skis, or any of the shirts or stickers they are selling on their website. This has always been the case - Prior to his injury, as well as now.
I received news Saturday that Joes recovery will be a lifelong struggle. This was not the news I ever wanted to deliver anyone, and honestly, I am not sure Joe has fully grasp this concept. But apparently folks feel they must know every single detail of what's going on, immediately - or their minds run wild with assumptions.
Please continue to show your love and respect for Joe by just being there for him. He still needs to hear from folks. It's so very important that he knows he's not forgotten, that he has the support so many of you have been so wonderful about providing. Please continue with the positive vibes, because the negative vibes are just really bringing his family and friends down right now. God, I hope he never finds out about them as well.
Thanks for understanding,
Lisa
