A Ride for Baby Granton

Granton Bayless is a six month old little boy from Bolivar, Missouri. In March of 2008, Granton was diagnosed with Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID.) SCID is a rare genetic disorder in which the immune system fails to develop. Granton is the light of his parents' life and has become the focus of prayer for a countless number of friends, family, and others. The financial strain on Granton's Mom and Dad has already been great and has only been overshadowed by the emotional strain they have felt over these last few weeks. On June 16th, 2008, I will set off on a five day, 330 mile solo bicycle ride to raise money for Granton's family. Your pledges will allow us all to attempt to help alleviate some of this financial strain. This Blog will let you know how you can contribute, as well as keeping you updated on the progress leading up to and during the ride.

Thank you for your support and Prayers,
Jayme Green

Things are coming together

Things have been going great this week. Donations and pledges are coming in and ther more we can give Jenni & Daniel the better. I have found a campground-Thanks to Blythe in Stockton-at Stockton Lake for the last night of the ride, I just need to get a hold of them and reserve a spot. Nobody ever answers the phone there. I did an interview with the Topeka Capitol Journal yesterday promoting the ride and I'm getting some interest from businesses around town in helping out. Only 12 days 'til we take off.
