Here is a letter I received about a youngster with cancer.....the family needs help. 

Hi Everyone,
I have a little boy Riktor Phillips in my Kinder Kickz class.  Since I met him a few months ago he has always worn a hospital mouth/face mask to class.  I never really asked why.  A few weeks ago his mom called to tell me he couldn't make it to class cause he was in the hospital.  I didn't want to pry, but wished him well and hoped I would see him soon.
 
I have never seen his full face as it is always covered.  His big eyes show his excitement while playing.  I finally just did some research and found a site on him.  He has been diagnosed with brain/spinal cancer.  He comes to class so excited to play and at time takes a break and then joins back in.  The cutest, well mannered little guy.  His mom blogs daily on him and says coming to soccer class is one of his favorite things to do.  From reading his site, I found out his mom can't work because she needs to care for him and his 1 yr. old brother and his dad works at Round Table. 


I feel like the biggest heel that I have been charging them to participate.  A refund check is on it's way!Anyways, I know we all have a little spare change.  If you are looking to put that to good use please check his site out.  You can donate directly on his site helpriktor.com and click on "how you can help". 


This really is a great family and little boy.  Every penny will definitely be put to use.  It all goes directly to the family.

Thanks - Renee
