Exclamation Sighty needs our help
For those that weren't aware, Nicole Buttis -- 'Sightseek' -- had a riding accident early this year that is causing extended health issues. Many may have seen this fund-raiser emerge at Facebook and I'm sure anything we can do to help will be greatly appreciated by Sighty whom so many of us have gotten to know personally over the last 10 years...

Wishing her a speedy and complete recovery.

I can't thank my "Nerdy" family enough! Horse racing has been a wonderful discovery for me - not only for the thrills the sport provides, but for the people you meet along the way. Thank you all for being a part of that.

Anyone on twitter knows that social media can be an effective way of getting a message like this spread far and wide...I have asked my followers to consider helping by donating the winnings from just one of their wagers.
I have also asked them to consider retweeting the link...every horseplayer can benefit by creating "good karma"

Sighty is a great person, great horse racing fan, and has been one of the posters who has made this board such a fun and special place. Countless times, she has put a smile on my face, and said something to put me in a good mood.

Hope you get better, soon. Sweetheart
