I wanted to quickly write about this little boy in our ward. Allen Woellmer. He had cancer in the lungs last year and after about a year of treatment was able to claim being free of cancer. They came home (as they had to be in Washington) and about two weeks later Allen was having seizure. They took him to the doctor and found cancer in his brain. Back to Washington for more chemo,etc. He is a tough little guy (he is Eilish's age). After reading their journal I found out they had a girl who died of this cancer, so this is not a new experience for them. Here is their web site. Check it out and if you could help with donations, I know they would really appreciate it. http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/allenwoellmer
