Wiscurzoos are ready to Escape!!

We were fortunate to get a spot at the Overland Park Presbyterian Church Booth 21. If you happen to be in the area stop by and say hello and help us send off the largest collection of Wiscurzoos ever!! Maverick is selling Small Wiscurzoos for $ 4 and Medium for $ 6 and Large for $10. All proceeds to help grant a local child's wish through the Make a Wish Missouri Foundation®. The Missouri Chapter serves the Kansas City Metro area which includes Johnson, Wyandotte, Franklin and Miami counties in Kansas. As of today Maverick is ready to sell out. Each Wiscurzoo is unique and there is even a limited supply of KSU, KU, MU, NU, Chiefs, and Royals for an additional $ 2.

About Mason Arik

To continue Mason's dream and his memory, we dedicate this blog to him. He has been diagnosed with Diffuse Pontine Glioma (Brain Tumor) (04/22/10). He courageously battled his cancer for 11 1/2 months. On March 29th, 2011, it was snowing in Heaven. He is and will be missed forever. We will continue to write and share the strength and courage that Mason has taught us as well as the many other lives he has touched, near and far. Links are listed below to provide additional information regarding DIPG.

Discovery of Tumor-Dx April 22, 2010

Beginning in March of 2010, Mason complained of severe headaches, mostly at night. Then the headaches went from 2-3 times a month (over a 2 month period) to every night and more severe, by the 3rd night I contacted his pediatrician. I was told to give him Excedrin Migraine.

But by the next day we were walking to school and he had double vision- Thanks to the school nurse, we scheduled an appointment that day with Sabates eye care. After his eye was dilated they noticed his eyes were shifting. An immediate MRI was scheduled.

After the most agonizing MRI, we went home awaiting the results. That's when we were told it was a tumor (pontine glioma) We waited to visit the doctor before researching the internet. So imagine the shock to hear this is the worst locations to find a tumor, inside the brain stem. (inoperable and unfortunately very serious)
