All,
First off let me say "Thank You" for taking the time to read this. I am not sure this is where this belongs and if it needs to be moved that is fine but I (our family) is in need of help. I have never asked for support like this so I am not sure I am going about it the right way but I am just attempting to ease a young woman's struggles. My wife's Cousin, Lindsey, has a beautiful 2 year old boy, Westley. Lindsey is a hard working single mother that takes nothing from our Gov and works non-stop to provide for her child. My wife has been a large part of Wesley's life as when I was away she would go take care of Wesley when Lindsey was at work.
Long story short we were blessed to see Westley around Christmas time (which was right around his 2nd Birthday)... My wife got a call Tuesday night from Lindsey informing her that Westley couldn't move his legs (do to an infection/growth that was "Ok'ed" days prior) and that his white blood cell count was dropping fast. He had been fights colds etc all winter but this is something larger. They life-flighted Wesley from Mercy Medical Center in Roseburg, Ore. to Dorenbecher Children's Hospital in Portland, Ore. They took bone marrow from him last night (Thurs) and don't have the results yet. They are speculating Luekiema but nothing in stone. Lindsey and Westley are very strong but are in need of supportive family now. Because of recent changes in Health Care she was cut from full time to part time at her job, thus leaving a single mother to fend for herself (and child). I know the cost of the life-flight alone is $25,000 to get the bird in the air. I don't know if writing checks to her is a good way to go or what but I am asking for support... Not just $ but more importantly prayer...
Please PM me or reply or I can give my phone # is someone wants to call and talk before donating or whatever. I just see a perfect example of a young woman trying to do what is right and working in every way too do that and sometimes we need to call on one-another for help.
These photos are of Westley and I hanging out after shooting and Westley smiling for the camera.
Thanks and God Bless,
Reed
