'Tis the Season

To spread goodwill to all. This time of year seems to bring out the best in people and we hope that continues throughout the New Year. We'd like to spread the cheer a little farther this year by offering up a First Edition Full Titanium 4F to benefit a very deserving family. They are 'local' friends, well, they live in New Mexico and we consider anyone in the state local! They are also good people. Nathan Barton, a fellow knife knut, his wife Shannon, daughter Allorah, and toddler Hudson have had a rough few years, but this year has been especially hard, medically and financially. Allorah suffers from a very rare autoimmune disease, Juvenile Dermatomyositis along with multiple overlapping syndromes, acquired generalized lipodystrophy, insulin resistant diabetes, severe celiac disease and arthritis. She takes 6 different prescriptions a day along with insulin and every 4 weeks she goes into the hospital for an 8 hour immune globulin IV infusion. She recently was weaned off steroids and chemo injections. So as you can see, she has quite a bit to deal with for any person let alone a teenager. They have to travel quite extensively due to this, as she has specialists in Chicago, Dallas, Denver and Albuquerque. Her main physician is in Chicago. And to top it all off, they lost one of her insurances this year.
