We lost our buddy “Lurch” earlier this year. We attended his funeral & had hoped to be there for this event to honor the memory of our friend. Race in paradise old friend. 😭

“Lurch’s Last Ride”

Last night the family of Nitro Chaos racer Dale “Lurch” Wilkens paid tribute to a life well lived, a friend to so many and a career drag racer. Lurch made countless trips down Mo-Kan Dragway and will now forever be present at his favorite race track. Godspeed Lurch!

Here is the latest update on 5 year old Baker. Please keep him and his family in your thoughts and prayers.

We are on cycle 8 | day 2/5 this week🎗️💛

Baker DID make count this week 🙌🏼 PRAISE

All weekend we have been struggling with stuffy nose and “allergy” symptoms. So while he did make count Monday, his numbers dropped significantly from 7 days ago. I’m talking several thousand. Platelets and blood have also lowered. This doesn’t particularly mean anything major, but there’s a possibility of needing blood and platelets this week. 🩸

🥺We knew this was going to be a rougher week because of allergies and immune system going down. But truly he is so tired. He’s nauseous. Throwing up. Nothing sounds good to eat. So he’s not eating. He’s just not feeling great. 😔 we haven’t made it to the hospital or back home without a puke bag being used 😞

His blood is officially being sent off for research, with Februarys sample, up to now. 🎗️
They took 30 mils of blood monday for genetic testing, gene testing, his research teams ect. We won’t know these results for several more weeks.
Baker’s cancer is rare, and the truth is, there is still so much that we don’t know.
We are learning as we go. His doctors are learning. Researchers are learning. There are still so many unanswered questions.💛🎗️

🎗️ PRAYER REQUESTS 🎗️
•We can keep food down
•Nausea
•Fatigue
•Energy
•His number at least stay the same or go up
•Peace

Today is September 1st💛
Childhood cancer awareness month🎗️
Roughly 14,000 children in the US get diagnosed with cancer every year.

By sharing Bakers story, you are helping bring awareness not only for cancer, but Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma 💛🎗️

Honestly this month feels heavy. I didn’t think it would like it is. I’m so proud of my boy, but I’m just so sad, scared, and angry that this is even our lives. 😭❤️‍🩹

It’s truly so unfair 😞

Thank you for praying with us, for us, over us. Keep praying. Please if it’s the one thing you do for our family it’s pray💛🎗️
