little-kirk.jpg See the child in the picture?

That’s little Kirk.

He’s seven years old.

He had a stroke shortly after birth.

That photo was taken the first time he was able to bring his hand up to touch the computer screen.

That was last week.

He is learning to read.

My friend Kevin Hogan told me about Kirk years ago. Together we raised money to help Kirk get treatment so he was able to have some movement.

Recently I saw a picture where Kirk smiled.

Another time I saw a photo of Kirk laying on a mat and beaming as he kicked it.

The other day his mom sent me the picture you see above.

Kirk is not at all bothered by his situation or his challenges. His mom told me, “I think one of his main purposes in life is to show us how to love each other — like how he loves us. He looks right past his disabilities & struggles and just puts out love to everybody he meets.”

I’m told that Kirk needs more help. Right now he needs a machine that cost $15,000.

I plan to get it for him, with your help.

And I’ll see that you get $2,500 worth of gifts for your trouble.

Here’s what to do:

Step One: Go to www.amazingkirk.com and contribute what you can to help Kirk. Everything you give will go to Kirk’s healing fund. But my goal is to raise the $15,000 he needs. I will match whatever you give until we reach the $15,000. Kirk’s smile is worth that to me. I look forward to shaking his little hand one day. (NOTE: If the Paypal button on the site isn’t working, you can send money from Paypal direct to [email protected])

Step Two: After that, go to http://landofthefreee.com and collect $2,500 worth of products, for free. You don’t have to give a dime to have any of these bonuses, but it would be good karma to give and then receive.

This is the sort of win-win-win I love in life.

You win, Kirk wins, and I win for helping a little boy gain the use of more of his body.

Please make a difference in Kirk’s life — and yours — today.

Ao Akua,

Joe

    Hi Joe,
    What a beautiful thing you’re doing for this precious child!
    The Paypal link is not working. Is there another way we can give?
    Thanks!

    Hi Joe:

    You have made it effortless to assist a member of my human “family”.
    Recovering from a life-altering brain surgery last year, my contribution is small, but carries blessings for Kirk’s healing progress and – for his amazing parents – kudos for their patience, Faith and strength.

    Thank YOU, Joe for your participation in The Secret, which – even though I have been on a Path to Enlightenment for 30+ years – pulled Meanings together to the point where now real transformation can be effected.

    Blessing you always. Karen

    😆 Hi Joe,

    I’m not sure whether I’ll be down-loading the gifts or not. However I shall be giving more to the new charity which my nephew and his wife have set up. They have a daughter with Rett’s syndrome, and a son who suffers from epilepsy.

    I hope that Kirk receives all that he desires.

    Yours ay,

    Ted

    Joe,

    Love the site and love what you’re doing for Little Kirk.
    I’m trying to send a donation but it keeps saying “session invalid” and won’t let me send a thing.

    Do you know of another way to send the donation?

    Thanks for everything you do!

    Hi Joe, I’ll gladly donate. However, I wanted to alert amazingkirk.com that there seems to be an error with the paypal button links. I’ll try again later, might be an error my end.

    Joe;
    There appears to be a problem with the donate button on Kirk’s site. I kept getting a session error. I tried from two different computers. I looked at the source and got the email address for their Paypal account and just logged into my account and used the “send money” option to make a donation.

    I do not want this problem to stop anyone from donating so anyone hits this error, simply send money to: [email protected].

    Hi Joe,

    Thanks for sharing Kirk’s amazing story with us! What an amazing little guy he is; it’ll make my heart sing to donate to Kirk’s oh so worthy cause! Also intend to tell my list about it, as I’m sure many folks on there would want to get involved in Kirk’s cause, as well.

    Richest blessings and tons of love to Kirk, his family and to you, Joe, for all the awesome work you do.

    Happy fourth, everyone.

    Much Love,
    Kim

    Joe,
    As soon as I got your email i felt compelled to go directly to that website and donate. I feel great. I hope little Kirk gets the machine soon.

  22. July 7, 2007 at 4:13 pm

    Yay I finally managed to donate! Even paypal couldn’t work out what was wrong lol.
    I feel better now :mrgreen: (I know Kirk has the full amount now, but maybe he can have something else too!)

    You’re a star Joe!

    Dear Joe,

    It’s the oddest thing. I’ve recently been getting your e-mails for your new book. But today I found you on the Flexerciser site. I thought, “I know that name” and low and behold I found you helping Kirk.

    I was on the site trying to find a way to fund one of these wonderful machines for my 5 year old Sara Ann who has spastice quadriplegic cerebral palsy since birth. She rides the Flexerciser when we go to the hyperbaric oxygen center. You can see her picture there at http://www.hboxygen.com under “photos”.

    I am writing you from the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia where they told us today that she is not expelling enough carbon dioxide. she needs more regular exercise to help her breathe. She is not able to hold up her own head or trunk or move the pedals on a regular bike that they would use here at the hospital. If we could get one of these specialized bikes at home to keep her moving, I think it would be life transforming.

    Now that your group has completed helping Kirk, is there any chance they might be interested in helping Sara Ann? You can read more about her at http://www.friendsofsara.com. There is a Paypal on the site. I haven’t had time to update it in 2 years but if any one leaves their e-mail I will send them regular updates. Hyperbaric oxygen has given Sara Ann full range of motion in all her limbs and she is no longer threatened by possible contractures, a real miracle. But her muscle tone is still floppy which is why she doesn’t breathe well enough.

    She also said her first full sentence when riding the Quadriciser. She said,”I love to ride the bike!” That too was a little miracle! I’m so eager to hear from you.

    Mom, Melissa Perry of Sara Ann Kronrot
