Ideas

I was just looking around the website and I saw your post. First, I want you to know that I will be praying for your son that he is healed in the name of Jesus Christ. If you ever need somebody to pray with you there is a Richard Roberts Prayer Line. He does the Hour of Healing and the number is 918-495-7777. They are there 24/7 ready to pray if you need any help.
To raise money why don't you post your case on the Pepsi Refresh Project. Pepsi is giving away thousands of dollars each month and I've have seen other people in your situation posting their cause for support. As fas as I know all you have to do is sign up with Pepsi(no obligations to buy Pepsi products), and create a post for your cause on the site. People vote who they wnat money to go to and the entries with the top ten votes will recieve the money.
Remember, Isiah 54 or something." THrough his stripes we WERE healed. That means it has already been prepared for us and all we have to do is believe for it. You believe by confessing the healing with your mouth, and not doubting in your heart; your mind always has to stop and listen to what your mouth says. I don't know where the Hour Of Healing will air where your are but he is the website; http://www.oralroberts.com/media/tv-schedule/#42. Again I will be praying for your son.

I just got off of the phone with Kevin.

He is very busy with his new job and doesn't really have much time to post at the moment. Andrew's treatment is continuing, he's on a new protocol which is showing some promise. He's currently scheduled to go to Stanford on the 26th to prepare for and to hopefully receive a bone marrow transplant. There hasn't been news as to whether a specific willing and suitable candidate has been found, but with the trip to Stanford still on the schedule I am very hopeful.

Kevin, I'll be praying over you whole family, Andrew's doctors, and the donor(s).

We just did a "Donate Life" custom rear medallion for a customer that turned out awesome - if possible to donate a portion of the proceeds of doing this type of piece, we'd be happy to help the cause by offering to do the engraving work for free and then making the donations to these charitable organizations, hopefully helping the cause to move forward.

Just a thought...

UPDATE

As I was driving to work thursday morning it hit me Terri & Andrew would be leaving this weekend for 3 months. I simply had to spend some time with them before they leave so I took the day off today.

They are back at grandma's since our home A/C unit died three weeks ago. It's still out & it's finally cooling down so can put off fixing it till we can get the funds. Never ending stuff sometimes.

Work is going better but I leave the house at 6:00 A.M. I get home around 7:00 P.M. . Sarah & I scrounge somehing for Dinner & I watch a little T.V. or try to keep on top of the domestic chores so I don't spend all my weekend catching up. Usually Saturday is fever pitch chores with a visit to Terri & Andrew in the evening. Sunday I am usually so tired I do not get much done & it all Starts again. I will say time is really flying by.

Unfotunetely my search for andrews financial aid & fund raising is having to take a back burner due to an extreme lack of time or energy on my part. I had a recurrance of my diverticulitus a week or so ago but got some new medication which allowed me to only miss one day of work. last time I had an attack it put me down for four days.

Our main source of income is my job so I have to concentrate on that. I simply can't afford to fail in my new position as it's the best paying job offer I got although I don't make what I did with my old employer. My pay is almost totally commision based so the better I learn & do my job the better I will be able to provide for the family. Kind of a catch 22 as I wish I would have had more time for my family but I guess you can't have it all.

Terri is at wit's end trying to get housing lined up for Stanford over the next three months as she will be Andrew's 24 Hour a day care taker as usual. It is imparative they get a clean,Sanitatry place to stay as close to Stanford as possable. If he has a reaction to the anti regection drugs or catches anything he needs to be able to get immediate medical attention. I figure we will have about $10,000 in out of pocket expenses over the next three month's. I guess I better get a bolt of energy & some inspiration on how to cover that.

Everything is such a blur anymore so I don't remember if I posted this before but Andrew's cancer level had got to 93% a few weeks ago. The doctor had consulted stanford & they gave tham a new protocall to try & it did quite a number. As per a conversation with andrew just before I started posting he is down to 35% WHOO HOOO! It's still sinking in. When I got the call he was at 93% my heart skipped a beat to say the least. So he will be in good shape for the journey to stanford & the bone marrow transplant.

I had a few hours this A.M. to get the Mustang out. It had been parked for a couple of month's and had so much dust on it you would think it was brown. The battery had totally died so I had to replace it to get er going. I cleaned it up thinking if Andrew was up to it I would take him out for a spin before he left for stanford. I wish it could of been in his Charger but I think that's a lost cause at this point. I just don't have the time & resources to finish it anytime soon but I will continue to work on it when time allows. Andrew is up for a spin so after dinner we are going cruisin for an hour or two.

Well that's all for now. Sorry I have not been updating more regular. Time has kind of lost itself in our lives as of late.

MGB,

KC 4 Andrew, Terri & Sarah

That you take any time at all to come here and visit with us, Kevin, is pretty amazing. So don't be sorry about your time away, you have a lot going on. We all certainly understand, and are happy to hear what we can.

Always positive thoughts you and your family's way! Kick that cancer's butt, Andrew!

I second that, entirely.

Kevin: Is there a Ronald McDonald House, or some other United Way or other agency, in the Stanford area that can be of assistance to your family? Seems like there should be someone locally who can help in such an instance.

I have been thinking the samething, now of course I am not close to you and the family but there has to some options for the patient here. I don't know you situation, but I know there is homes and non profit organizations for this very cause. And no I am not saying you need this, you deserve this service and option for you and your family. I would get in touch with the awesome team of physicians you are working with and I bet they can direct you in the right direction.

My prayers to you and your family. Just found out about what's going on. I will do what I can.
A little story what you did for me KC. In 06 when I was recovering, As I started feeling better I got a hold of you and you got me some parts for my last car, a LL Vert. When my wife heard me on the phone calling you about buying parts for my car, she said to me that at that moment she knew I was BACK! You and your great service were part of my heeling.
That's what I want and pray for Andrew is heeling.
God bless you ALL...

UPDATE

The Doctors say Andrew is not going to make it. The pneumonia is going to end his fight.

I simply can't say anything but, we need all the prayers we can get.

Only a miracle will save him!
