Need to get word to the boys schools

Kids help to provide levity to situations that are otherwise just terrible. On my list of people to inform about Liz were the teachers and counselors at their schools - Kings Park and Kings Glen. I asked a friend to get the word out in the event the boys needed to talk or just needed support.

Well, before a simple phone call could be placed, Carter walked into his classroom and is asked the normal morning question "Good morning Carter how are you today?" Out of the mouth of the little redhead comes "My mom has cancer," and with that he took off his backpack and was ready for class. I was sorry that the teacher had to find out that way, but, in one sense, I think they are used to kids that age simply speaking what is on their mind.

Harrison had a much different experience. His teacher was already informed and she pulled him aside during the day to talk to him. She explained that she had breast cancer seven years ago and was now healthy. That really did wonders for Harrison as he shared the news with us that evening. What a wonderful thing she did for him.
