READ** A Child With Cancer Needs Our Help!! **READ
I've been into BWI quite a lot lately with my airline, and everytime I go there, I get more and more ANGRY!
There is a Continental ramp/ops agent there named Claude Walters. His grandson, Gavin Storm-Thomas, has cancer and is not even two years old yet. His father is a ramp agent for Southwest there at BWI.
From what i've been told, Gavin has a great spirit and has been taking his Chemotherapy like a true champ, despite his young age.
I am furious that this has to happen to such a young child. I too have a son about Gavin's age, and I think I speak for all the Mom's and Dad's here when I say that you CANNOT look at this story and NOT think of your own kids.
We need to pool together.......we need to buy this kid a chance to make it through this.
His parents are exhausted and financially devastated. I know that you all hav the heart to give something, ANYTHING that you can.
There is a cup in the ops area in BWI for donations, but according to other rampers there, they get some money, but not enough, not even close.
SOMEONE, Please help this family to help this kid. All the help he can get.
Please visit www.gavinstormthomas.com for his story!
Thanks

Okay gents. There are about a million sob storys out there. Where should we begin? Do you want to hear about my family problems? Let's hear about yours. There are other web sites devoted to this kind of thing. I don't want to be the one who says it but this is does not belong on this web board and certainly not in the Major forum. Maybe Health and wellness or Hanger talk. Admin?

If you dont want to help, don't. Its unfortunate that there are people like you that dont seem to care. I posted this because these people ARE real..I know them. You do not know me and I do not know you. From your reply, i have really no interest in knowing someone like you. ou may be a very nice person, its just that your posts do not reflect that.
As for this child. I posted this because I care. Because I can't imagine having my son go through this. I cant imagine seeing him in this much pain. So, with that said, Mike, you may now stop reading this topic, as you are helping no-one.
If you read this topic and are interested in helping, please do. If you do, thank you. I appreciate it, but more importantly, they do too.
