Jennifer Dominguez Thank you again!

My son, Matthew was chosen this past year to attend the Kidd's Kids trip to DisneyWorld. The entire family had a remarkable time, as this was our first trip to Disney. I always wondered how and why we were chosen. I knew exactly what Matt had endured this past year after he was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma a year ago in January and knew that he was a perfect choice. What I didn't know was that this was going to be our last trip together as a family. Two months after our trip, Matthew passed away.… Continue

Veronica Vargas Dedicated Listener

I have been in TX for almost 8 years now and have not been able to find a morning radio station that I liked enough to commit to on a daily basis, even my days off! But my reason for posting is to tell you that I am now officially a DEDICATED listener. I hold you and the Kidd morning crew up on a pedestal for your commitment to children and their families. I was beside myself with the parents and siblings i heard on the radio while you were at Disney World. I cried all my way to work and even wa… Continue

Shelly Smith There are no coincidences

I originally wrote this as a blog on Myspace. I feel like I need to share it here also. I've been laying in bed trying to sleep. Something just kept weighing on me, on my heart. I feel like I need to put it out here for everyone. It's amazing how one simple sentence can alter your entire life. You are going through your life.... going to work, helping the kids with their homework, trying to pay bills and looking for the best grocery deals. Then suddenly, in one moment, with one sentence, every… Continue

Shelly Smith Life Lessons

A little something I blogged on Myspace quite a while ago, before Kyle's donor had been found and locked in. Here I sit, in my son's room while he's sleeping in his favorite spot... the couch. It's almost 1 am, we're getting up early to go the drive at Pikeville College (Kyle wants to go) and I can't sleep. I lay down, my body's exhausted, but my mind just keeps on going. I am amazed by how the last 3 months have changed my life. One day, you're going to work, grocery shopping, cooking, clean… Continue

Welcome To Kidd's Kids

I founded Kidd's Kids in 1991 with the hope of making a difference in the lives of terminally and chronically ill children. Each year, Kidd's Kids offers five amazing days of suspended reality to children whose lives have been ravaged by disease. Kidd's Kids children and their families are given the chance to experience the exuberance of being "normal." That is the gift that you and I can offer by supporting the Kidd's Kids organization.

Signed,
