Life is cruel bitch and it sucks it has to be this way . No child should ever have to go through this. I have much respect for this little boy and his family. Rest In Peace Jean.

I hope he enjoyed every moment of his short life here! RIP, JB!

There's nothing in a life with leukemia that's enjoyable unfortunately... everlasting pain, never ending illnesses ... poor boy

I believe at one point they thought he was in remission and there was hope. Life can be very unfair and cruel sometimes. I wish the best for his family.

I just wanted to take a moment to say some things. I'm sure they will sound dumb or corny...but this news upset me quite a bit, so I'm just gonna say what I have to say.


I want to thank all of you, so very much, for joining together, to show this boy some of the wonderful, and beautiful people that exist.


I hope the money we sent was able to make the time JB had left special in some way.

One last toy to make him giggle and laugh

One last trip for him to experience the beauty this world can offer

Or at least medicine to make his last moments here peaceful and pain free


Thank you to Scruffy, without who none of it would have worked. Thank you to all of you. I'm proud to know every single one of you.

Very sad to read indeed , i'm sure he would not want anyone to be sad and simply put to remember him well and live life fully but i can't imagine how the family is feeling .
May life bless them and all with joy as he surely does and always will .

Well we have to thank Brian. It was because of his idea that we became involved in this effort to begin with and as I remember, the main purpose of this money was to help with the expenses of the family renting a place in Marseille where he was being treated, so they could spend more time with him and if they were able to spend more time with him because of our efforts, then it was money well spent.

I will stop in a church, maybe Notre Dame and say a few prayers for him and his family while I'm over there.
