    Figure I'll keep posting her updates.

    "PRAYER WARRIORS……

    So, as a mother I am always one to pre plan and pack for trips and different events. However, tonight hit a little harder. As I packed his backpack with things to do during a 5 hour day at the hospital or longer I cried. I wanted to stop. I didn’t want to prepare because I know the anxiety he faces ahead of tomorrow.

    He is so scared and cried and begged not to have to go to hold off another day. However, another day would turn into another, and another and so on.

    I packed games, books to read, crossword puzzles, snack, drawing book and etc. just anything to take his mind off of reality.

    Please I beg of you to lift him up and thoughts and prayers. Nothing more than that cause prayers are powerful. This is truly my worse nightmare.

    I know all things are possible when you believe."

    I got him one of these. Supposed to be a brain teaser and stress reliever.

    Welp, I was expecting the mom to send over her book so I could do her reports and just heard that William is sick & in the hospital right now.

    All prayers are helpful.

    @Roscoe Arbuckle I asked my son to mention William's gofundme page on his YouTube show last night. Looks like an additional $1200+ was donated

    There were 40+ gofundme donations around 3 in the morning when his show tends to wrap up. I was hoping for more. :)

    If you go to this link and skip forward to the 2:21:20 mark you will see the 7 minutes where he discusses William and his family.

    Shoot me a DM with an email address so that I can forward the tickets.

    Edit: It’s 11:30 pm here so I’m going to bed but I’ll forward them as soon as I get up in the morning. The tickets are for 8/5 against the Twins.
