Wilks Carter - 10 month old with cancer - Benefit Raffle

[DoubleGobble00]

In case anyone is interested they are having raffle to raise money for the Carter Family. This little boy (Wilks Carter) is 10 months old and the doctors confirmed this week that Wilks has Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis (LCH) & it is in the bone marrow and it affects his skin. Chemo started this week. He will have treatments once a week for 6 wks, then be re-evaluated. Treatments are one syringe & only last a few minutes, so that's a blessing. Treatments will last at least one year. Wilks, Casey (Dad), Rebecca (Mom), & Lillian (Sister) are now beginning a long journey... See this link for more info on his condition and periodic updates: http://www.bullnettlenews.com/forum/yaf ... tumor.aspx
