    Message to Kid Rock regarding helping dying Trenton, Michigan girl who was taunted by her neighbors
    guini says (25 Oct '10)

    Hi,

    I posted this information on Kids website blog, but dont know if this is the correct way to contact him, so I was wondering if there was a way to get a message to Kid Rock about the little dying girl in Trenton, MI, especially since Kid is very generous to his Michigan fans and our family are certainly great fans of him.

    The little girl, Kathleen Edward, who is in the final stages of Huntington's disease, a fatal brain disorder, was taunted for months by neighbor Jennifer Petkov, who posted pictures on Facebook depicting the little girl beneath a skull and crossbone.

    There has been outpouring of worldwide support has helped restore the father's faith. I was wondering if Kid could perhaps help with a Disney trip or something. http://detroitnews.com/article/20101013/METRO01/10130358/Taunted-Trenton-girl-sees-support

    Please let me know if there is a way to get him the message. Thank you,

    Sincerely,

    Arlene Brown

Laura,
I hope that it is a beautiful day for all of you. I am sure that it will be a very special day for Kathleen and your family. Please let me know how the event turned out and if you were able to hug Kathleen!

Its about 150 miles but my mom and sister are so glad to be going. Their HD is late onset... I thank God daily for that. I am in high hopes that a cure is found very soon. They are doing a great deal of research and the answer just has to close. If I get a chance I will give Kathleen a hug from you.

Oh Laura, I am so sorry to hear this about your mom & sister. I had never heard of this disease until I heard about Kathleen. How awful for your family. What an awful disease, I will pray for them also. That is so nice that you are going to the Rally. How far away is it from you? I wish that I could go. I'm in Texas now. Give Kathleen a big hug and kiss from me and also to your mom & sister. Keep me posted about your family. (I believe in miracles!)

Arlene,
I just spoke with my mother and sister, both of which are HD positive (late onset) we will be making the trip to MI tomorrow for Kathleens Rally.

Laura, I know this touched my heart. To see pictures of that smiling beautiful little girl and the thought of her not being with us in the future is a heartbreaking story in itself, but to think of the evil that those horrible neighbors inflicted on her is so very disturbing to me. I cannot get her out of my mind. I pray that she will receive even more love and support from the community on October 23rd. Keep up the good work on Facebook along with the prayers for her and her entire family through this very difficult time. Thanks for replying to me.

Arlene, I've been following this on facebook... HD is a tough disease, and to have a neighbor from hell, like that person treating people in such a way really pisses me off. I am a quiet kind person but this got to me in such a deep way. The other side of me showed up, my thoughts were not kind and I was not quiet. best of luck and prays to Kathleen and family.

The Trenton Witch is back in the News again! You all may have heard this already --

Aired on America Live this afternoon, Megyn Kelly reported this story.

Arlene, You're not too old for anything, you're a KR fan. Kathleen's Father is such a stand up guy. He accepted their apology but just wanted to go forward, and did not want to have anything to do w/ them, only concerned with his little girl. He lost his wife last year, he is also in my prayers, as is their grandmother, Gotta go and see the FOX report w/ Megan Kelly, thanks for letting me know.

KRLO, Thanks for replying! I don't really have any thunder. I'm too old for that.

Yes, I also read the Detroit News article this morning. The story was also aired again this afternoon on Megan Kelly's show. They re-ran the orginal tape of the UGLIES NEIGHBORS with their original nasty remarks and then they showed little Kathleen shopping and interviewed the dad. She (Megan) commented on how the world has embraced this little girl. (Same thing that you just said!) Megan is really doing her best to let everyone know how she feels about the two other horrific people. I am so happy for how this sad story has turned out to be such a wonderful one for our beautiful little girl. May God stay with you Kathleen and your entire strong, fabulous family!

Arlene, don't even worry about it, you went to all the work to post the links, (didn't want to steal your thunder so to speak) Yes, she is in my prayers and thoughts, Power of prayer is quite strong. Read today in the Detroit News that the husband of that person, (don't want to get to nasty) was suspended w/ pay and now has been fired. She is trying to take the poor poor pitiful me approach, like she is the victim. Guess what you moron, there are consequences to all actions. Her apology was half-assed if you ask me. So glad the world embraced this wonderful little girl as well as the miners in Chile.

In case you haven't heard, here is heartwarming news about Kathleen!

Taunted Trenton girl goes on toy spreee!

Thank you Arlene for starting this, The support they received from throughout the world is so so heartwarming. She had her toy shopping spree today, Fox 2 Detroit covered it and it made me cry, w/ joy. After she had her spree, the family went to Mott's Children Hospital and donated a ton of toys to all the children there. Talk about a contrast in two families. Evil and Good, so glad Good won out this time.

God Bless lil Kathleen and her family. As for the bullies, may God forgive them as they do not know what they do, and hopefully can find their way to get help.

Hope that little Kathleen gets all the love and support possible. My heart dies everytime I hear of a child that has been mentally abused and/or is physically ill. In this case, she has endured both, in addition to the loss of her Mom and Grandpa in her short lifetime. Hope and pray that the Lord can help this child. Kuddos to Dad Robert, Grandma and Uncle Ronald! This family sounds like a great family that has been dealt with enduring so very much pain.

Arlene, I did see this on Fox news. I will be happy to share the info to friends as well for contributions.

Mr. Edward, your niece and family will be in my prayers this evening & days to come. I can't even begin to imagine how hard this has been for you all. I'm so sorry for all the hurt and pain you guys have been experiencing. :)

KRLO's picture

Ronald Lee Edward, I am so sorry for the pain your family has had to go through. Doesn't matter if you are up north or downstate, she is your family. All of your family have been stabbed with a knife and had to watch the knife twist. My prayers are with your niece and her Dad, and you and all of your family. We saw evil on 9/11, think we just saw it again. Vile person. However, you are seeing the outrage others have at this horrible act, so I hope it brings your family some peace.

God Bless your Family and know theres a special place in Hell For people like that.

I am so sorry for little Kathleen and for your entire family. I am praying for Kathleen and for a miracle to happen. She is so beautiful and I cannot imagine this whole situation. I contacted the Rainbow Connection organization and hoping that they can bring some joy to this little angel. May God bless her and your entire family. Tell her dad and her grandma that so many people are touched by this beautiful child's struggle and also by this horrible incident. Kathleen has touched so many hearts. I'm hoping that my prayers will be answered. Is there anything that we can do besides contribute to the fundraiser?

Thank you for your comments. May God be with all of you and that all of you find the strength to get through this difficult time in your lives.

im in houghton lake michigan, the rest of the family is trenton,mi

I read today that the father has been suspended from work without pay. At least his boss realized what nut cases these so-called parents are. I don't think Death Valley is far enough away. I think that they will have to relocate to another country far, far away. I will also contribute to the fundraiser but don't have much to offer either. I felt the same outrage with this incident as I did with the Florida little girl with cerebal palsy who was bullied on the school bus and the father tried to help. The father got arrested and I was hoping that there was a fund started for the dad's legal defense because I wanted to contribute to that also but have not heard anything more about that case..

But Let's hope and pray that little Kathleen has lots of joy and hopefully some good memories in her final time here. I'm praying for her and for a miracle.

I also contacted the Rainbow Connection Organization and they are working on doing something for this little angel.

Thanks again!

(P.S. Where are you located at?)

automan821's picture

as family (im the uncle of the little girl kathleen) id just like to thank everyone for their support.

KRLO's picture

I am so glad this is going viral, She apologized because the public was outraged, she did not mean it. She still needs to pay for it, and yes, their children should be taken away, won't happen cuz psychological damage doesn't seem to count till they murder someone. Hopefully this wanker loses his job and they relocate to Death Valley. I know they are having a fundraiser for this fine little girl and her fine family soon. We don't have much to contribute but I will do what I can. Thank you God for the good people on this Earth. I hope she shops her heart out, BTW, I will buy all my toys for the little ones in my family from that store.

Thank you for commenting. This incident has bothered me so much that is why I am trying somehow to get some joy to this little girl. This thing is going viral. It was on Fox News yesterday and also today on Glenn Beck. I hope they take her kids away for awhile so she can hurt a bit as much as she & her husband have hurt that little girl and her family. I don't know how you can be a mother/and or father and do something as sick as this.

This was horrendous. I heard that witch finally apologized, obviously did not mean it, the police couldn't stop her but the court of public opinion sure did. Karma will come and bite her in her big fat butt soon, she also will be answering to God someday.
