UPDATE:

This was posted on the forum last night in response to the article that appeared in the East Idaho News about our fundraiser and Christmas Card Drive for little Ian's Christmas.

This is sooo awesome!
Everyone that helps has such an amazing hearts.
God bless everyone and Merry Christmas.

Keep riding safe.

==================


Okay
That one little comment TOTALLY CHANGES this whole event.
I thought this whole thing was Heart Wrenching before, but Good Lord, I had no idea that Ian's dad had lost his father just a few short years ago to Cancer. And now his little boy has cancer as well. I can only imagine the mental torment he must be going through right now..
Good Grief...

Was it any wonder I felt so strongly about this family..
We NEED to REDOUBLE our Efforts to make this Christmas Project happen guys...

I'm guessing from your "Join date" you got word about what was going on here. Thank you for joining and sharing some of the story. God bless you and your family.

PS. I love your username ☺

I am fortunate to have 9 grandchildren. Two of them are 3 year old boys. Ian reminds me of them. I can only imagine the pain and fear that family is going through. You are doing the right thing, Chris. ??
Card is in the Mail.

Ya
Considering little Ian’s dad lost his father to cancer, this whole experience has to be a bit more traumatic than it appears...

THANK YOU for supporting my project!!
