Get your Motor runnin'....Head out on the Highway...

Lookin' for a cure-ur, ridin for K K, Yeah KK go make it happen,
Kick this cancer in the face, Fire all of your guns at once and send this thing into space....

I dunno kinda catchy don'tcha think? Does it make you wanna get on your bad motor scooter and ride?? Well for those of you that DID that on Saturday for KK THANK YOU!! I'd say you all ROCK but actually you ROLL!! Thanks for supporting this wonderful family and from what I hear it was an earful (which in Biker terms is a good thang!) plus you probably all got to do a ton of that cool little "bikers only" wave that you all do so well...makes me want a Motorcycle just so I can do that little wave. Can you do that wave if you have a Vespa (not that I have one and not that there's anythign wrong with Vespa's but boy I'd look funny on a Vespa).... So I know you are all eager to hear details, man give me the details!! so without further ado (or some of you may be thinking without further doo doo LOL), I'm pleased to present Matt and Rebecca Eberharter in their own words: (Drum roll please, hold the applause and questions until the end)

Thank you Rebecca and Matt for the fabulous update, now I know you are all waiting for an update on KK as well so here with that update, please Welcome his adorable and funny Mother, Alanna Little: (The Crowd goes WILD!!!)


KK went in for his overnight chemo on Monday. we moved the day so that he would be feeling good cuz we are going to see George Michael tonight. Yeah....Richie is soooo excited. KK is doing good today, his spirits were down on Monday and they
had a rough start trying to access his port. Jeffrey showed up at the hospital and
they had lunch, KK's favorite pizza paggliacci. His BP was pretty high and they
monitored it closely, it finally came down without any meds. High BP is due to one
of the chemos he gets. He had a hearing test last week that showed his high pitch
range of hearing has been slightly affected from the chemo. the docs said they had
expected that and he doesn't need a hearing aid. Its a part of the hearing range that we don't use in regular conversation. He was a little upset but Auntie Marcy, who took him to the appt. was able to talk to him and give him a big mamma hug since I wasn't there. His red blood count was a little bit lower than normal going into last week but of course, like a champ he was able to bring it up.

(The crowd again goes WILD cheers and applause for KK!!!)
(encore, encore, bravo bravo for KK)
