After hearing about Zach Yost (son of Shane and Amber Yost) and his fight with cancer I felt compelled to do something to help out the family during this most difficult time.

A little about Zach first:

Zach is a 2 year old that was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma cancer on Nov. 17, 2006, is is in stage 4 (out of 5), so needless to say the family has a tough road ahead of them.

A little about the cancer:

Neuroblastoma is a disease in which malignant (cancer) cells form in nerve tissue of the adrenal gland, neck, chest, or spinal cord. Neuroblastoma often begins in the nerve tissue of the adrenal glands. There are two adrenal glands, one on top of each kidney in the back of the upper abdomen. The adrenal glands produce important hormones that help control heart rate, blood pressure, blood sugar, and the way the body reacts to stress. Neuroblastoma may also begin in the chest, in nerve tissue near the spine in the neck, or in the spinal cord. Neuroblastoma most often begins during early childhood, usually in children younger than 5 years. It sometimes forms before birth but is usually found later, when the tumor begins to grow and cause symptoms. In rare cases, neuroblastoma may be found before birth by fetal ultrasound. By the time neuroblastoma is diagnosed, the cancer has usually metastasized (spread), most often to the lymph nodes, bones, bone marrow, liver, and skin

Now about the raffle:

I am offering up a complete AMSOIL SYNTHETIC oil change for any passenger vehicle you might have, this will include oil and filter shipped right to your door (this will include one (1) EA series oil filter and up to ten (10) qts. of the SYNTHETIC oil recommended by Amsoil for your vehicle).

Each entry will be just $6
100% of the proceeds will go DIRECTLY to the family!!!

I will run this raffle the entire month of May and will be announcing a winner on June 1st.

To enter simple send a paypal payment to dirk@4x4oil.com be sure to put Raffle for Zach in the subject line and please include your screen name and what board you are on in the body of the payment so I can easily find you when the raffle ends.

My families hopes and prayers go out to the Yost family, please help in supporting the family!!!

This is from another Amsoil dealer over on Pirate that is sweetening the deal.


Ok, to sweeten this up a bit, Dirk and I have been talking. I am throwing in an air filter for the person that is the winner as well. Amsoil makes some GREAT nanofiber filters, and if they don't have one thats AMSOIL, they will have one in other brands that will fit your rig. Lets help Zach!

A quick update from the hospital


Update:

Zach's counts are starting to engraft, his ANC is 200 and there are signs of new white cells growing... *YAAAHHHOOOO* I might be able to get out of this miserable place soon!!! However, I have to stay here, and prepare for the next transpplant, which is going to be alot crappier then thin one is/was!

Zach will have to have high chemo. for 6 days, then 3 days, 2 times a day of TBI (Total Body Radiation / Irradiation) and then the transplant, He is going to be miserable... I am trying not to think about that though!

Shane showed up today w/ Dillon and hung out w/ Zach and I. The boys gave each other a hug and then started fighting over there damn cars / toys. (Typical I suppose)

However, Zach fell asleep, and we decided to take a quick break, and Dillon was playing w/ a nurse (this guy looks like George Carlin) in the halls of the ICS Unit. Then all of the sudden, the nurse GROWLED at Dillon and Dillon got scared, so scared he stopped breathing, and had a seisure. Yep... right in the halls here. The nurse felt bad and was unsure of what to do. Shane and I just let Dillon do his thing and when he came to, we held him for a few and walked to the truck so he could take a little snooze. Dillon has done this before, but only if he hits his head sometimes. Never when he was running and playing. It was an oodd thing to see! So, I will be on the phone in the AM to his doctor to get him in for testing AGAIN, just to be safe!

URRGGGG..... These kids are gonna kill me one way or another! LOL

Have fun everyone!

Thanks alot.

Don't worry about the amount, hell if we could just get EVERYONE on this site as well as on Pirate and some of the other forums I am running this raffle on, to enter for just $6 each we would make a crap load of money!!!!

Think about it on Pirate there are over 90,000 members, JU has over 77,000 so right there would be just over a million bucks!!!!!

Granted to get EVERYONE to do ANYTHING is damn near impossible, but the $1500 +/- we have raised so far is just a drop as to what we could raise.

Okay I will get off my soap box now.

Thanks again and just be sure to spread the word. I also have some of the bracelets here I can send out or you can get them from the family as well, just $8 ea. or 3 for $20.

Some people donated before too Dirk, when it was just the bracelets. I know a lot of the Idaho guys did. Maxis did a run of 1000 bracelets and those all sold, and they are on the 2nd run of 1000.


I have the raffle listed on the TDR, about 35,000 members on there. I know one of the guys on there donated $50!

My brother is supposed to send some money when he gets in the internet.

He was also asking how long it's running until??

Cue-Ball
05-14-2007, 07:53 PM
Yes SEVERAL people have donated from the TDR site actually, atleast 5-7 people.

It runs until the end of the month, the winners will be announced on June 1st.

Thanks for helping out Nate, I know that getting it out on the other boards has been a big help.

Update from the Yost family:

Hey everyone, we are outta the hospital FINALLY!!! We go back in for his 2nd transplant in 3 weeks! Urrgggg..
Dillon seem to be OK, however we have to take him to the neurologist again. I have no idea when that will be, hopefully soon! He will be going to Calif. for a few months while I am here and Shane is working to spend some time with family!
Miranda is doing the same, however she will be going to Denver, and a few places w/ family for the summer..
Me well Zach and I are here in Utah... (Talk about BORING) LOL
I am thinking about taking Zach to Moab over Mem, Day weekend. The docs think its not a good idea, since he can't be in the wind, dirt, ect.. He still has a very low immune syatem. However, I am gonna play it by ear, see what his counts are next week and go from there!
He is on (IV nutrition) for 12 hours a day, which I have to administer to him. Its kinda nuts, Zach has his own pump, iv line and meds to take which all fit in a fanny pack that weighs more then him by far! I am going to have to figure something else out with that set up because he just can't manage with it. Talk about a weight holding a two year old down, it's not a pretty sight, not to mention the sounds of him crying because he can't go anywhere w/out me following him around everywhere!
Zach and Dillon turn 3 on Thursday, and it sucks we can't be together as a family to celebrate it!
Well have a great day everyone!

PS. I know how it is with those fanny pack pumps... My wife uses one several times a day now, and she complains about it being heavy. I can't imagine a 2 year old having to deal with it.
That TPN (IV nutrition) is definately a heavy bag to haul around during the infusion.

Just one week left!!!!!!!!
If you are planning to mail a check or money order PLEASE PLEASE let me know via email or PM so that I can put you on the list, I would HATE for your envelope to get lost in the mail or show up on Friday after the winners are picked.
I plan to pick the winners in the morning next Friday and will email/PM/etc. the winners and post up here.
Those of you that have posted this on other forums I ask that you will repost the results there as well so hopefully everyone knows the results.
I will also be posting up a final tally on EXACTLY how much money we raised next Friday when I announce the winners.
Thanks again everyone.
Dirk

Okay before I announce the winners I wanted to take a minute (while I still have your attention) to say THANK YOU to all the Vendors, this turned out amazing and my hat is off to all the vendors, it says alot about EVERYONE of them as they all came looking to me unsolicited (other than BTF, I did ask him for the covers). The fact that from my very simple oil change offer, prompted competing Amsoil dealers to begin emailing and PM'ing me to see what they could offer, really tells me that one person can make a difference.

I also want to say THANK YOU to everyone that entered the raffle, everyone that said they did not need to be in the raffle but wanted to donate anyway.

Thank you for all the emails showing support and the kind words and prayers, it all helps out, I can not say enough how great this has been for me to see my simple oil change turn into a rally from the offroad community.

I also want to say THANK YOU for spreading the word like you have, we have had people from all across the country and on atleast 15 different forums enter the raffle and that just goes to show that we have a great community with ALOT of recirses that really can be used for doing great things.

And a THANK YOU to the Yost family for allowing everyone to help, NO they did not call me ands ask me to help, I contacted them and asked if I could help and so THANK YOU for allowing me to do that and being strong enough to take help when help is offered, I know that can be hard sometimes.

Lastly I would like to thank the academy, my wife for sticking by me, and the directors, and producers....Oh shit wait that is a different speach, sorry about that (LMAO). Seriously THANK YOU to my wife for helping me with the random numbers this morning as she was rushing to get the kids out the door for school.

So to wrap this up let's remember who the REAL WINNER of the raffle is:
http://www.fototime.com/{2DAA3218-FBAE-43F0-A5F2-2300EC5B7CB1}/picture.JPG

So here are the winners:
Grand Prize: April B.
1st Runner Up: Earl S.
2nd Runner up: Blake V.
TJ Owner: Sean D.

T-Shirts to the following:
Nicholas A.
Jeff W.
Steve Sz.
Jonathan J.
Kevin C.

Will all the winners please email me Name, Address, Phone Number, and Vehicle specifics so that we can get the prizes rolling.

I will update the main post on Pirate after I have posted the winners to the other forums, those of you that posted this on other forums PLEASE help me out by posting the results, I am not on all the other forums and I don't know every place this got posted so I need your help with that. I will also be updating my website this morning to reflect the winners.

I am still waiting on a couple of PayPal payments to clear and to confirm the per entry donation that was pledged, but it looks like in total we raised $3,3xx!!!!!!!!!!

Darn I didn't win anything - but I bought me some oil and donated what i could. I am just glad I could help a little- I will donate again if there is another raffle. Thanks Dirk for setting this up as it shows how everyone can pull together even if its just a little to make a difference. Good Luck and I hope we do it again.

There will be another raffle starting soon.

Won't be for oil this time, but something else just as good I just can't say yet until they start the raffle.

Thanks for all that helped out!!!!!!!!!!!
