>What do you need for verification? Do you want to talk to my surgeon?

I think that's the opposite of what people want: it's a matter of authentication -- how do we know the person that put up the website is forwarding the money to the real John Draper? Most people would trust you, if they could verify it's really you. You could put a link to this fundraiser on your website or myspace, or make a youtube video saying it's a real fundraiser, and that would be enough to convince people. How it is now isn't enough to convince people that the money really is going to you.

I challenge you to rebuff my claims. You contact me personally, I will be happy to give you the name of the doctor's physical therapists, and any and all medical staff that can substantiate my claim. And I find it totally offensive to say that people don't believe me. I'm have anything else to say, I'll leave you to judge based on what you can find out on your own.
