Kase’s Krew

07/28/2026

Well somehow it’s been 6 months…..

6 months since we’ve gotten to see your sweet face.

6 months since we got to hug you.

6 months without your whole body laugh.

6 months without your big, beautiful, live life to the fullest, happy, wonderful personality to brighten our everyday.

We are upright, we are breathing, we are surviving. But our lives are not the same. We are not the same. We will never be the same. We will never be our best, happiest selves again, that version of us only existed when you were still here.

I still don’t have any of the “right” words, this still feels like a nightmare. My brain still doesn’t want to accept your gone.

So until we get to see your beautiful soul again, we try to keep moving, when our hearts can handle it we do things we know you would have loved. We do things to honor you, and the incredible fight you fought.

Today I submitted your picture for the tribute wall at curefest this fall. I wish you weren’t on the angel wall, I wish I could take you to the rally and show you how many people are fighting for kids like you everyday. But I promise to keep fighting, keep saying your name, and keep trying my best to honor the amazing little boy you are. 🧡

Well my sweet boy, today marks 5 months. 5 months without your sweet smile. 5 months without your loud, wonderful, whole body laugh. 5 months without your all healing hugs. 5 months without you dancing around and shaking your butt at everyone. 5 months of hoping you hear every time we tell you how much we love you and miss you, but not getting to hear it back.

It has also been 5 months of people telling us every day that they don’t go a day without thinking of you. 5 months of hearing memories of you. 5 months of Kase’s Krew continuing to show up for us. And buddy, Kase’s Krew definitely showed up for your birthday fundraiser! We were able to make one heck of a donation to the Ronald McDonald House Charities in Omaha in your name. You are still changing the world for the better every single day buddy. I promise we will continue to do good in your name, you will continue to be a bright ray of light in this world for the rest of my days. 🧡

We want to thank everyone who donated for Kases birthday fundraiser! It was truly a great turn out!! (This picture truly does not do it justice! The table is HUGE!)

In honor of Kase’s birthday this year we are going to be doing a supply fundraiser to benefit the Ronald McDonald house of Omaha. They played a crucial part in our journey by giving us housing, food and support not once but twice while we had to live in Omaha while Kase underwent radiation. Without their support I’m not sure what we would have done.

We have asked them what they are most in need of and I will make a list. I am also going to add some things I think would be nice as well as having experience living there.

If you are able to donate we would greatly appreciate it! As we are out of town this week to celebrate Kase we won’t be able to accept donations ourselves. Cambridge public schools has graciously agreed to be a donation drop off point for us! You can drop off donations during their office hours Monday-Thursday 8:30-12 & 1-3:30. We will be picking everything up Thursday afternoon (6/25) and taking it to Omaha on Friday!

Needed supplies:
Toilet paper (this must be individually wrapped rolls only)
Paper towels
Canned meat (big need)
Individually wrapped toothbrushes
Hotel sized toothpaste, shampoo, body wash, deodorant
Laundry detergent
On the go meals (Mac and cheese cups, cereal cups, ramen cups…)
Snacks (individual chips, crackers, trail mix, fruit cups…)
Trash bags
Diapers/wipes
Disinfecting wipes
Meal prep containers
K-cups
Small toys for kids to get (fidget toys, bubble wands, coloring books, sticker books, temporary tattoos… think party favor type toys that they can put out as a surprise for the kids in the house to bring them some joy. These types of things made a big difference in the kids spirits while we were there)

They also have an Amazon wish list linked on their website for a more in depth list. We appreciate any donations made in Kase’s honor and look forward to making a difference for a place that made such a difference for us. 🧡

Happy 10th birthday to our angel Kase!! We wish more than anything that you were still here to celebrate with us. We miss you more than words could ever say! Everyday without you has been a little duller. I hope heaven is treating you well buddy. We are spending your birthday in Colorado this year, checking off seeing the snowy mountains off your list and we know you are with us every step of the way. 🧡

We have shared all of our photos from the last year in their own album since there were just too many to share in one post. Check out all the happy memories we got to share with our boy. 🧡

And if you have read this far we are going to be doing a fundraiser in honor of Kase’s birthday this year!! I will post the details shortly so make sure to come back and check it out!
