Everytime i see this thread pop up, i get a smile on my face from ear to ear (and a joyful tear in my eye, but....). I hope we have given him enough of our energy to keep fighting and one day become a full-fledged maggott

Wow, I just found this thread. Whats the status on the young man? +++Vibes+++
awesome. I just found this thread.
I don't have any cool schwag, but I can get Don Alan some lift passes to Mammoth whenever he feels like coming out!
+++++
WTG maggotry!
Erica,you are quite special:) Post up what lift you are shadowing this weekend so I can bug you.
I know that package. BIG :biggrin: Thanks for allowing us to help and share the stoke with him. Breaks my heart.Quote:

I have refrained from posting a list of who sent what because I got the feeling that some people would rather remain anonymous. Here's a few more prayers for Don Alan.
Very nice work, TJ!

Very Nice! (and those are some sweet looking sticks too!)
Thanks for stepping up like that TJ!!! You may have helped give him that little extra he needs to keep fighting. This thread breaks my heart, but it also mends it when the mags have stepped up, helping Don to smile another smile.
I would post more but right now I'm crying my eyes out:)Quote:

Sad new. :frown: :frown: :frown:
Don Alan passed today. As a member of skinc, I just wanted to thank all the maggots here that made his last few months enjoyable. The skis were a nice touch TJ...You are awesome....
Thank you guys, you guys are so great.
I don't know how I missed this thread but, shit that pic of the kid hurts. Good stuff TJ! For all the crap that goes down here we are all part of a pretty cool community and you guys make me proud to be a part of it with you.
Except for maybe Blurred and Jer :p ;)
That...that...that...sucks. My deepest wishes for peace for everyone. He was a kool kid.Quote:

We are working on getting a flower fund setup.
Wow...
Missed this too...looks like you guys gave him some happiness. He felt it, that's what life is about. He probably died with more caring, support, emotion and feeling of connectedness than many people ever feel.
That's a short, but full life.
RIP Little ripper, May you tear up the endless deep blower powder where ever you are. +++++++vibes going out to the family and all the mags who I know will be affected by this, I know how affected by this that I am. Damn, I can't believe I am tearing up.
Nothing is sadder than to see a child lose their life to cancer......It is encouraging to see all of the support and generosity that comes from this forum though.... +++++++vibes++++++
I'm not sure exactly why I agree with this statement - certainly wars and mass starvation seem bigger than one kid - but I do agree with it. It just strikes home.Quote:

I have given money every single month for the past twenty-couple years to St. Jude's Hospital for kids with cancer, I certainly am not saying that I think I'm great or anything, but it's a good cause and a great place, maybe consider helping if you can.
R.I.P Dan Alan, I'm so sorry it ended up this way.
RIP
It's a cruel world, enjoy every minute.
isn't that what we're all here for? to be little bit less selfish and to do some cool stuff for others that makes them happy? i'm taking comfort in the fact that we did just that.
cuts close to home when my oldest is 8 years old...can't imagine the loss his parents are feeling right now....:(
Vibes to the family - looks like the kid had a great life despite its abruptness.
fuck. There's nothing remotely ok about a kid dying, from anything.
RIP. :( :(
I have chatted back and forth with Don Alan's sister and she wants to thank everyone for everything they have done to help improve Don's last days. It would amaze you guys to know what a great big sister she was throughout the whole thing. I think Don was very blessed to have so many good people pulling for him and send those + vibes his way. RIP, Don Alan.
