We had the best time with Eden’s Crash and the press Monday the 18th. We all met at the Viceroy in Oak Grove, KY around 1pm… I got lost. LOL! The ladies from Oak Grove Tourism Facilities, and reporter Rachel Vickery (The Eagle Post), and Lee Erwin (News/Community Service Director for Q108-Z97.5-BEAVER- Sports Radio 540- Eagle 94.3-JOY1370) came out to meet us at the Viceroy.

It was a good day for Jaden; he found energy to actually run around in the grass. Later he was so tired, that he slept the rest of the evening. It was wonderful to see him outside, and smiling.

Not many people realize how quarantined he is… and how different his life is from other “healthy” children. There are so many things Jaden can’t eat, touch, do, or be around. Example: At the benefit concert Jaden will not be allowed to walk around the festive seating area. There will be potentially 5000 people there at any given time, and that is just too many germs to risk. If he gets a cold… he could die! It isn’t worth the risk of killing your child, so he can have fun walking around.
Sometimes it is hard to say “NO!”

However; many good things came about Monday at the Viceroy. We got to spend some time with reporters, and the members of Eden’s Crash. The guys (Dustin, Marcus, & Wes) are wonderful, and very talented! (Check out the "Eden's Crash" Myspace page) We look forward to hearing their music at the concert, and working with them.
Thank you and God bless!
