Thanks for posting this, Jenn. As you know, I have been following Kate’s story since the beginning, as she lives in my town. Her story is both heart-breaking and inspirational. She is a strong, sweet little girl fighting a very tough battle. I cannot imagine what her family is going through. I think about her every day and she reminds me what is most important….my family.

I have been in touch with her mom, and I am coordinating an effort for her 6th birthday celebration. I have had several Etsy sellers send amazing gifts for her. It is likely that she will be in the hospital for her birthday (12/26). If anyone would like to send her a birthday gift, they can send directly to the address on http://www.prayforkate.com, or contact me.

Thanks again, Jenn for spreading the word about this beautiful little girl!

Thanks for sharing this Jenn:) I was really touched by Kate’s story. As a mom, I can’t imagine what it must be like to go through that. I am keeping them in my prayers!

I’ve been a follower of Kate’s since August. Thanks for promoting this … her family is such a blessing to others, even with all the difficulties they are dealing with.

I stumble across Kate’s story a couple weeks ago and was inspired to host a toy drive for children with Cancer in our city. My students and I have collected tons of toys and are going to give them to two pediatric oncology departments in our city. We will donate some of our gift cards to KATES CRAZY COOL CHRISTMAS drive, too!

Helping to spread joy, toy by toy!

I think it is great that you are trying to help Kate and her family and get her story and all of the other small children that are needed help this season.
This story has touched me and I think Kate and all of the other disease stricken children are so Brave and I cannot wait to donate on their behalf.

Thank you for sharing!

This really hit home for me. I had cancer as a teenager and almost spent Christmas in the hospital (I was released on Christmas eve). Holidays are often the hardest for families going through something so hard and I know, firsthand, how gifts and love from the community can brighten a child with cancer’s day. Thanks for posting this Jenn! I will definitely be donating some toys, in honor of Kate and the brave kids battling cancer along side her and also in remembrance and celebration of the decade of life I’ve been graciously given since I was in that same spot.
