I saw that. People so touched by the compassion of a dying child are willing to come together and help in his name so that his wish can come true. How awesome is that?

Even though I think that is pretty nice. What pisses me off is the fact that it takes something like this to get people to do something.

Main reason why I despise holidays.

I saw this story on the news as they were doing their food drive, and I was blubbering like a little bitch. You know, as a parent, I'm always questioning whether I'm raising my kids right. This kid's mother should sleep well at night KNOWING what a wonderful little boy she had and the fact that his dying wish was able to help so many people.

Ya gotta love a kid who's dying wish was NOT to meet his fav sports figure, or go to Disneyworld, or some other selfish thing. Ya gotta support a kid like that. We donated an entire thanksgiving feast for 5 or 6 folks at the Fred Myers at Thrasher Corner in Bothell in honor of this kid. Star Radio, Komo news 4 TV, the Bothell Fire Department, Nortwest Harvest and some other folks were there taking food. They had a 26' Ryder truck damn near full of food.

Nice one kid.
