Update 5/27/08

Update

KK Had a great time at camp I hear, even though it rained on them. He had Chemo on that Thursday the 22nd and it also went well. He was a bit tired and nauseous, but to be expected, he got to go home earlier then normal on Friday! He got quite a bit of rest this weekend and is feeling ok. They did get some bad news though, Not sure that you all know but at the same time that all of this is happening with KK, his grandfather, Alanna’s Dad, also has lung cancer and has been going through Chemo and radiation and has taken a turn for the worse. He’s contracted pneumonia and they have stopped the Chemo treatments and started hospice care. Alanna headed down to Vancouver, WA to be with her Mom and Dad during this rough time. It’s amazing how strong this family is and the challenges they face and continue to overcome with positivity. We’re all thinking of you Little’s and sending you positive thoughts and prayers!!
On a brighter note.. Uncle D, my son Easton and I all went over to Mansfield, WA for our annual FIRE IN THE SKY (FITS) rocket launch. “KK’s Prayer” launched and probably got to about 7000’!!! we’ll never know as it was GONE!!!!!! Uncle D and I walked about 2 miles to find it laying in the middle of a wheat field, in pretty good condition!! We woudl ahve much longer and farther if Uncle D hadn't convinced me to trust his tracking device!!! DOH! Well, it was a successful launch, Message was definitely delivered! You can expect to see video of the launch in the gallery in the not too distant future. KK Has another Chemo treatment this week Thursday and then our annual camping trip this weekend, we did modify the location to the Tumwater Campground in Leavenworth so we’d be relatively close to services if needed. We are hoping to meet Janie Casey there who will be delivering “KK’s Kancer Kickin’ Kwilt” and we’ll get a chance to thank her, we’re all very excited for that!

Now then, so, what, I go out of town for a weekend and you all just stop posting in the guestbook?? Yo, don’t make me step into a slim jim and get all WWE on y’all.. now get back on track and keep the energy coming for KK, and an extra boost for the whole family or I’ll have to open up a can of you know what!!!! LOL seriously, let’s not let the momentum that we gained with the Kar wash slip, we all saw that the positive power is working, along with KK’s positive attitude we’re gaining traction and opened that can on the Cancer so please keep up the support, we need you!

Did everyone check out the Motorcycle ride page?? Pretty cool eh? That’s going to be another very cool event and we hope to see any of you that have a 2 or 3 wheeled vehicle riding up to Leavenworth on the 28th of June!!!

Next update will be after the Camping trip this weekend 
