- I am about in pieces here. I just recently commented about the H1N1, running through the school districts, and how every High School football Player, Team, Coaches, Parents and Fans have been affected- one way or another,and Thankful they recover. The hidden point was about the Senior players that were faced with this Influenza, and at the same time, working their way to College Scouts with their Team and their Stats.
When does anyone recall such an obstacle that this years children have had that fight? and/or their Parents "fears"

Now I read this, and all of me wonders if this can be real. I am so sad to the lost life, way too soon. God Bless Kyree and all that were fortunate enough to know the "little angel"- My deepest sympathy to his Family.

So heartbreaking! Can't imagine the pain this family is going through. To do everything right and still lose your child is utterly devastating. Condolences to anyone who knew and loved him.

I am at a loss for words. No one can speak of the horrific pain the mother is suffering unless you are a mother whose has lost a child. Kyree is in the arms of God and His Angels. I pray his Mom finds comfort and peace through God who strengthens
us.
As a mother to another mother, my heart is broken for you. My prayers are with you.

POLIO epidemic!

What about the availability of vaccine for H1N1. Was it available for this poor child. And will some parents think differently about the vaccine, since this young child was taken from us. Condolences to the family.

yes, I know history too, most young parents with school aged children do not.
Who would ever imagine reading about this today?
beyond the vaccine and the scarce availability - please remember to wash those hands, stay home when sick, and cough into your arm.
and if you are like me, and have minimal contact with the public or children and elderly- give up the limited vaccine dose to those that will benefit the most.

My heart goes out to the family. He is such a beautiful little boy. Mom he put up such a good fight, my you find peace knowing that he is now angel that will always be looking over you. God Bless you and your family.

My heart is crying with you. Rest in peace little angel.

First of all my condolences to Kyree's family! Such a tragedy. Hopefully by now-parents realize the harm this virus is causing. We need to get this vaccine to every single child-but how do we do that? I understand that PA received vaccine and I'd like to know where it was distributed and why the government is taking it's good old time getting the vaccine to the schools? These kids need it now or I'm afraid we will be seeing a lot more tragedies in the weeks to come! I myself SHOULD be getting it-BUT-I am more than willing to see a child vaccinated first!
