It Takes A Special Reason

[hewunch]

Monday my youngest got to ring the bell following his cancer treatments (again). This was his second go round with Langerhan's Cell Histiocytosis. The boy loves orange and dragons. So, I made him a Dragon pen (PSI) with an Orange Juma blank. I purchased both from exotic blanks. Dawn and Ed have always been very good to me. As to the kit, not my favorite, but he loves it. That is what matters. If you asked me what is my main concern about the kit, I would say the following. 1. The bushings mean very little. If you use them and want a good fitment, you will likely be disappointed. 2. If the centerband gets turned around it causes the upper barrel to not seat all the way. If there is a warning about it in the instructions I didn't see it.
Pics are my son ringing, the pen and the video is when he received it after the bell ringing.
comments good or bad are welcome.

Thank you. as to the movie, that is odd, it plays for me on my phone and ipad. I wonder if others have the same difficulty.

@hewunch
So, maybe it is just my browser ...... Mr Vic says it played for him in IE11 after he downloaded.

I mostly just love that he got to ring the bell!! I do like orange, too. When I was a teenager, I had an orange and white striped parachute draped across my ceiling/walls, an orange carpet and speakers with orange woven grillcreen. What's not to love about dragons? Sounds like he made out incredibly well and I hope there is never another go-round with cancer for him!

Thank you. And Oh my I guess if they are talking about me they are giving someone else a rest. Or at least that is what my Grandma used to say.

Awesome story... Very inspiring and a reminder to be grateful for what we have.

Very tough,but thank you for posting.

The most beautiful thing about this is the ringing of the bell. May he never again have reason to ring that bell.

If ever a pen was made with love this is the one. Good luck to your son and family.
