Default 11 year old boy has 4 weeks to live

Hi Everyone

Not sure if you guys are aware (did a search but couldnt find anything) but theres a big thread over on scoobynet about a young boy aged 11 who has an inoperable brain tumor - His father promised to take him to a car gathering as he is a big fan of sports / modified cars.

The original thread has grown massively with a great turnout so far with people with all sorts of cars pledging to turn up so thought I'd post on here to see if anyone on here would be interested in attending. If you are please visit the thread on scoobynet here: http://bbs.scoobynet.com/scoobynet-g...l#post10767353

Below is the first post from the thread (location changed now due to numbers)

Best of luck with it and I hope the lad enjoys it.

Stuff like this shows there is no real justice to this world
