Those of you who know me, know that I am 31 years old and am a 4th grade elementary teacher. I am a semi-pro magician and love everything to do with magic. My wife, Susan and I have two young children and just this past November, my wife was diagnosed with Stage 3 colon cancer. It felt like we had just been hit by a mack truck. I had only shared this with a few of you on here.
In December she had her entire large intestine removed, temporary colostomy bag, and a port put in for chemo treatments. I had planned to go to my first Magifest in Columbus, Ohio this past weekend, but knew that I needed to cancel and stay at home with my family.
I had really wanted to meet Danny Garcia, Shane Black, Eric Jones, and many other guys down there and had talked to Shane numerous times on the boards here. I let him know that I wouldn't be able to come to Magifest based on what my wife and I are going through. It has been the toughest challenge of our lives.
Shane Black and Papercrane Productions went completely out of there way and sent me a package which I should get tomorrow containing magic products on their behalf and generosity. I just wanted to let everyone know that sometimes you can create magic for others just be doing something incredible or going out of your way. I felt so blessed to have someone who I have never met except through these boards, do something like this.
Thank you Shane Black and Papercrane productions. If anyone else contributed to this package and I didn't know it, I would like to say thank you as well.
