Smile Fletcher is home!!!!!!!

My little tiny month old grandson had to be sent to Saskatoon hospital in an ambulance, may have Meningitis.

He could use whatever help we can give.

If you have an extra one, please send it out to our daughter, she's not in great shape over this as you can imagine.

Us too.

Geeez how does such a good guy get such bad luck. Best of wishes. If I can help in anyway let me know. Wish the little bugger the best. If he's your relation I'm sure he'll like it's ass and take it's name

Thoughts and prayers being sent for both of them Ken. I'll even say one for big Grandpa so he can get through this time without too much stress. I can only imagine what the entire Family is going through.

Please keep us updated as his condition improves.


Aaron.

Hey Ken
I will say a prayer for your grandson and his Mom tonight.
As a father and grandfather, I can relate---man, that must be tough!
Hang in there....God bless you and the folks that you love the most.

I always thought you had to catch it from someone. Just based off what I have seen on the news. I'm far from an expert on the matter

Holy hell this is tough. We need this little guy. My dad died when my daughter was 6 months old. Fletcher is just over a month. Rough night.

Come on ken, you can't go pulling the heart strings with pics like that. That's not fair. I think I just shead my first tear for someone I don't know. That's harsh. I'm feel angry now because of it. A little child who so innocent fighting for his life when there are so many wastes of skin walking around.


God Damn, fight it little man. You got a whole bunch of tough guys fighting for ya, who ate secretly crying on the inside

I'm not a religious man and have never prayed but I will do so now. I hope everything turns out OK.

Prayers from a non praying man aimed your way.

We're all pulling for the little trooper Ken, as well as for his Mom & Dad, Grandma and Grandpa and the rest of those who love him.

I hope the Big Guy (the one much bigger than Ken) was taking notice of all the charitable stuff Ken does for the Stollery among others, this is a most appropriate for some return Karma.
