    I have a 16 yr old nephew who has been in a battle with AML Leukemia for two years and has unfortunately lost his battle !! He has been given just a few days at most . One of his things/wishes was to get as many people as he could to just visit his Facebook Wall - CHEERING FOR CHAD , to make them aware of Cancer . The family are just trying to get our man the hits he so wanted , so click the link and visit his wall PLEASE !!

    Dear grimreaper,
    I am saddened to read your post. Please add one vote if you can, for me. I don't have a Facebook so cannot "like" your nephew, and I understand you reaching out to try to fulfill this goal. I hope you meet and exceed the goal.

    I will "like" your post and perhaps you can add it in.

    Regards,
    Linda

    This is so sad - if I used Facebook, I would gladly do that for Chad. Please let him know that he's got a couple of "non-FB hits" as well!

    I don't use Facebook either, but please pass along to Chad that I will be praying for him.

    If it's any consolation, a couple of years ago, we lost one of our YN's on the NGC forums. He was just 17, and his name IS Chad Williford.

    Message left, my heart aches for him and his family. Any parent knows the suffering they must be enduring.

    Ok, I visited and requested to join the group. Was there anything else I was supposed to do while visiting the page? Anything I could do to help in any small way would be an honor.

    Hey, I'm on facebook, but I'm not really an expert on using it. Is there a button somewhere on that page to share it to my wall? Or should I just copy and paste the link into my status?

    Lol Adam I am in same boat. I have a facebook account but never use it, so I could not figure out how to "like" Chads wall. Or how to share it or do anything but visit it and like a picture of Chad.

    I am a total facebook noob.

    I regret to inform everyone , but my little buddy passed this morning .

    Thank You to everyone who has joined his wall and prayed for him , it means alot coming from my other family !! Please keep joining if you can , that's what he would want . He was a brave little man who fought his heart out for two years and changed so many lives in the process . I was trully blessed to be his Uncle as he changed my life .

    I ask of anyone who can , to please donate to St. Judes , Vanderbilt Childrens Hospital , Riley's Children Hospital , or any Cancer affiliated Charity !!
    It is now my hope to set up a Cancer Fund of somekind to help kids in memory of Chad !!

    Once Again , Thank You All for Everything !!
