This a wonderful thing they are doing. I have a 15 month old little boy and another boy due in January. The thing that surprises me the most is that Stacy is so giving. I say this because I knew her in high school and she was not a very nice person and looked down on alot of people. Glad to see she has matured and my heart goes out to her and her husband.

Jake is my retired assistant principal's grandson. Today we watched a video about him that she had brought by the school. Currently we are having a can food drive to help raise money for children with cancer.

I stumbled across Jake's site when my son was first diagnosed. It was about 1.5 years ago. I have followed his courageous battle and kept him in my daily prayer. This video is a beautiful tribute to an incredible boy and his family.

Thank you for opening up your hearts to the world to further awareness of the horrible beast robbing us of our precious children!!

May God continue to bless you all

Here's my post under my own name:

You all have been and still are in my prayers. I have been keeping up with Jake's story on the Recipezaar website. It is easy to see what a special little boy Jake was throught the pictures & videos, even for those of us who didn't "really" know him. What a wonderful way you have choosen to honor Jake. I wish much,much success to the Jake Owen Raborn Foundation.

God bless you all.

Thank you for sharing your story. It hit really close to home. My 2-year old son was diagnosed with Hepatoblastoma in November of 2005. The end of August will mark 1.5 years of remission.
