Nice Supercrew. Have you ever checked out Fordtruckworld.com?

Great Place lots of great people and a wealth of information about Ford Trucks. I will be revealing a new interest in about 4 more weeks.

Yea, been a member on several of the Ford boards for years. I use the same user name. I've seen you there.
 
I, myself, do not have a disability, but my 3 year old son does. He was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma Cancer, stage 4 (out of 4)(cancer of the nervous system), when he was 17 months old. He was given a less than 50% chance of survival. He had a tumor removed from his chest, thus, they had to remove 3 ribs. His cancer spread to his blood and bone marrow. I lost my job, house, and had to put everything in storage. We lived at the Hospital in Houston Texas for months on end. We also had to fly to New York City for treatment. With no money or job, we had no way to get there. Another member of another forum, bought my family First Class Round Trip tickets for us.
We almost lost our son a few times. He was in ICU, with a temp of 105 for 3 days straight. There was an infant across the room who passed, and that just made me think hard....we may lose our son soon. After rounds of chemo, radiation, and 2 stem cell rescues, he is here and well. He has been in remission since January 2005. We are very lucky, as a few of our friends lost their children to the cancer.
He is developing slow, and will most likely not be able to have his own children. But hey, he is here.....

Here is our sons webpage... www.www.caringbridge.org/visit/kobeworth
And a little about the cancer.... google...... neuroblastoma stage IV

Tex sorry to hear this My Thoughts and Prayers go out to you and your family. God Bless you all.

Killer story Texas. I love my boy. He has neurofibromentosis 1, but except for learning diabilities and some disfigurement, I think he'll be okay. And he seems pretty smart at 16mos. My sister-in-law died of a brain tumour with it, but it's rare.
I feel for you.
