AW: Remember Dax?

Some of you might remember this. I wrote a story about this little boy last year who was diagnosed with leukemia and sparked a global outpouring of support. Well, now his story is inspiring Christian music artist Matthew West.

I've never heard of him, but apparently he is a big deal in the Christian music world. He wrote a song for Dax and his family! He is trying to help Dax's parents raise enough money to run St. Jude Children's Hospital for one day... that's $1.6 million.

Here is the link if you want to check it out. I was just so moved that Dax continues to touch lives Smile

Re: AW: Remember Dax?

  • That's so great he is trying to help out.

    I remember that story... I remember it often now bc my friends friend's kid is going through something similar...not leukemia though.

    Sad  That breaks my heart. I just feel so badly for the families who's children have to suffer.

  • I've followed Dax's CaringBridge site since your story.  He passed away last December I believe and they just had a baby girl maybe a month ago.

    They did a HUGE celebration for his brithday this summer.  I sent them some Scentsy as a donation for their raffle's :)

    Matthew West is a big name in Christian music.  That's awesome he's doing that for Dax!

    Oh, and they are building a house in Dax's name for sick children in their area (think Ronald McDonald house).

    It turns out I've heard the song on the radio and as I heard it, I thought of Dax.  Little did I know, it was written about him.  wow
