Great story Jay! I love a mushy story every now and then!

i always liked the ruet. saw a special on him when he very first came into the sport. very humble man

Great story and great charity. St. Jude's is one of my pet causes. I have some of the Christmas cards that the kids there have designed.

Great story Jay; thanks for sharing it.

Jay take a bow, that was awesome.....

I wonder if David has ever let the kid sit in the car or taken him for a lap around the track? That would be neat to a kid.

Wow ! What an experience for Wiley :-) For all of it's many faults NASCAR as a whole does have away with getting folks involved and coming up with feel good stories :-)

Now that is a great story. Awesome Jay.

Hi Smelly back in the world of Rollin' Bud again ?

Cool. Chicken soup for the NASCAR fan's soul!

Jay thanks for a feel good piece we need more of those sometimes.

Wow!!!

Looks like now that Cult Hero Christopher Walken is here to look after us the Marbleheads can rest easy ?
Is the Texas ranger related in anyway to Texas Mom ?

Hi Kim, what's happening in sunny California ?

As the mom of Wiley and wife of Stephen, this story means a lot to me. I watch the video every once in while and have a good cry. Wiley has not had many great days since he was diagnosed, but as his dad likes to say this was a great day that turned into a great experience. Thanks for sharing this with everyone.

Welcome to Marbleheads Stacy :-) Wiley has won my admiration for telling us how it is, shame a guy with so much to give does not get many good days but with loving folks like yourselves I guess he must be thankful for the good days when they come :-)

Please pass on this Marbleheads best wishes to a brave young man :-)

Stacy as a mom, my heart goes out to you and what you must be going thru watching your child suffer with his illness. No thank you for letting others share it with us. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers and I am sure whenever I see the St. Judes advertisements, I will remember Wiley and think of him.

Merry Christmas Y'all! We just drove in from St. Jude today. We go almost once a week for some type of treatment.
I'm Wiley's dad. I'm so proud of my son and his battle with this tumor. Wiley has been in this fight for 3 years. He was diagnosed the Tuesday after Thanksgiving of 2005. Christmas of that year was celebrated in out our local children's hospital - Blair E Batson - in Jackson, MS. It's probably one of our best. Four days earlier, we almost lost him.
The drivers are incredible. Many of them came to visit with Wiley. It was a such a blessing. And let me tell you about the teams. Those guys are the backbone of the sport. We got the rare blessing of getting to know the #99 team. We feel like those guys are part of our family. They have make the difficult days Wiley has to battle easier. No one will ever know just what kind of impact they have had on my son and family.
"Thank you" - Michael Waltrip Racing, Aaron's Rents, David Reutimann, Jerry Baxter, and the whole #99 team. Y'all have been so kind to my son and family. I don't know where we would be without you
"Thank you" - Ryan Kurek and the folks at Leverage Motorsports for having the vision to bring more awareness of St. Jude to the best fans in the world - NASCAR fans!!!
"Thank you" - St. Jude and the people who work tirelessly to win the battles against childhood cancer and tumors. Y'all make even more Christmas mornings possible.
"Thank you" - Blair E Batson and the people there who saved our son's life and help keep him alive.
"Thank you: - NASCAR fans!! Please keep supporting St. Jude, Children's Miracle Network, Make-a-Wish, Victory Junction, and the sponsors that donate their car's paint to these children's charities.
Merry Christmas
the King Family
Clinton, MS

Gosh! Nearly 4am in my neck of the woods going to have one more bash at the next batch of animation frames then going to call it a day :-)
Look forward to catching every one tomorrow :-)
MP thanks for the Breast Wishes, naughty but nice as we like to say in England :-)

Hi, Stacy! I hope Wiley has some more great days. It has to be difficult on all of you. May you have many blessings each day.
Hey, Art...sunny California is dark right now. ;-) Very foggy around here this morning; there was 4 wrecks involving 32 vehicles, including big trucks. Glad I don't have to go that far west to get to my office. Most of the way was good for me, though. For about a mile, I could only see maybe 300 feet, but after that it was about 1/4 mile.

Seasons Greetings from Wales Stacey, Stehen & Wiley :-)
Take it easy in the frog Kim :-)
Love to hang some more but am due to start Zzzzz's real soon :-)
Maniana :-)

Goodnight, Art. Have some cheesecake...if they have it in Wales.
Stacey, Stephen, and Wiley--may you have a great holiday!

Stories like this are the reason why I donate to St.Judes every month =) Mr. and Mrs. King, my prayers are with you and Wiley and all the children at St. Jude. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and many happy years ahead =)
