A poster on GoPowercat.com that deserves our support

Unlike Tim Fitzgerald et al.'s calloused indifference to the fatty cause, we give a eff when it isn't "ours" as well....

to all wabashers.  i don't want to get all "oldefella" on you just to butter you up, but it is a great time to be a wildcat fan.  the season has taken me by storm as well.  maybe i thought i could catch you while you spirits are high.

some of you may remember the story of my youngest daughter, lucy, and her battle with brain cancer.  hard to believe, but it will be two years this nov 20th since we lost her.  everyone, especially my fellow cat fans, were very gracious and generous throughout her treatment and beyond.  for that i, once again, thank you.

this post is for more.  saturday, dec 8th, i am participating in the "ultimate hike" in rogers, arkansas.  its a one day, 22 mile hike in the ozark mountains.  all donations and proceeds go to curesearch, a non-for-profit organization that funds research for pediatric cancer.

please visit my page.  donate, if you can.  if you can't, please be so kind as to pass on the link to others.

i'm always uncomfortable asking people, especially friends, for things like this, but i wouldn't do it if i didn't believe in it.  i hope some day these funds will save the life of your child, your child's child, or any young person you know.  as i know all too well, life is precious and can't take it for granted.

thanks for your support.

I cannot imagine what life would be like without any of my three precious children. I am sick for his loss and pray for his family.

Sounds like a great cause.

Things can be so unfair sometimes.

Dick Vitale dropped in $500... .  He was from $2,000 at 8 am to $3,325 in 6 hours.

Good friend of mine and one of my roomies at ksu. Not to mention a good cause. One of the biggest cat fans I know.  Have hung of many a goalpost together in the 90's.

      Very heartbreaking....

Brian & his entire wife's family are really good friends of mine. Definitely feel good in helping the cause

It's just a little water in my eye.

It's been over a week or so now that this has been un-pinned at GPC.  We'll un-pin it from goEMAW now.  Just wanted to make sure that it received as much exposure as it could.

I hope for the best for this k-stater and his family and friends.

I was curious how the  un-pinning would go. Well done, Pete!
