My buddy kent suffers from ALS.. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis..lou Gehrigs. Stephen Hawking suffers from this. Kent is not as far along as Stephen but has had a serious set back. They are a very faith filled family...they ask for your prayers. If thats not your thing just a kind thought privately will be nice. Kents brother troy sent me a care package from the states..Moberly, MO...some USA goodies I cant get in New Zealand. He sent along the note telling me how badly Kent is doing. He also sent me his bands new DVD recorded at a benifit for Kent. These are some of the nicest, kindest people I know...please be kind as well. here is a youtube music vid from happier times for them...they may be on the next warped tour.. http://thefollow.com/
