money
our son was dx'd with cancer and our friends had a charity golf outing for us and raised $8000, now they have made no mention of giving us the money, do we ask or just wait to see if they mention it, it has been two weeks since the outing and our friends are the type of people who are very pushy and sensitive but have the best hearts in the world but we know that we'll sound greedy if we ask for it even though it was donated by our co-worker's and family and friends, what do we do?

hey
give them some time. maybe seven days starting as soon as you read this. it won't seem greedy if you ask after three weeks though. just bring it up casually, not asking straight upfront about it. say something like, "it was nice of you to raise all that money for us..." & see if they bring it up. they probably just forgot about it.
don't worry too much. i'm terribly sorry about your son. he has wonderful friends & family who care very deeply about him.
feel free to ask me anymore questions :]

I certainly don't think it would be rude for you to ask for it- I mean- they ran the event for your son- so the money is really for you guys. If they haven't given it to you- then you shouldn't feel bad in asking. If you don't ask- you may never get it- and it sounds like you need it =D.
I feel so sorry for your son. My best wishes to you and your family =D.
