Payton get's his wings (7 of 7 new posts)


Our wonderful neighbor is a fighter pilot for the Redhawk squadron in Portland. Captain "Rico" gave him an invitation to be a Redhawk for a day and an official Redhawk patch. Payton will be able to sit in a jet, they will do special takeoff's for him, wear the helmet, and some other fun things. This came on a day that he was in need of a pick-me-up. He has been having a hard time after these last 2 treatments. His energy has been sucked from his body and he had to be taken into the hospital 4 times in 8 days this past week. This invitation brough the biggest smile to my little man's face. He was in heaven, and for a moment he didn't look sick. It lasted until the next morning but soon after slipped into his worst day yet. He is beyond excited for this event. It should happen within the next 2 or 3 weeks. He has told us he wants to be a Jet piolot for a long time so this will be awesome. Thank you Captain "Rico"!!!
