Collector Zone _ Everything Else _ Thumps up for Lane Goodwin

Posted by: ffman Sep 21 2012, 02:37 PM

I noticed this heart-breaking (and touching) story on Facebook. 13 year old Lane Goodwin lives in Beech Grove, KY (not very far from me) and is suffering from a rare form of cancer for the 3rd time. Right now, his outlook does not look great.

Many people have started of theme of posting "thumbs up" pictures for the strong little guy. Several local individuals have posted thumbs up, as well as various celebrities and athletes (Garth Brooks/Trisha Yearwood, the Tennessee Titans, St Louis Cardinals players, etc). Please keep Lane in your thoughts and prayers.
