About This Item

TB on Alex's grave marker

This Travel bug is sent in memory of our son, Alex. He passed away on February 24th 2007 after contracting Meningococcal Meningitis; he was just 17 years old. We want to spread the word about having our children vaccinated so other families won't have to feel the pain we do. Please visit our website www.theknutters.com for more information about this disease and how to prevent it.

Please take photos of my journey and email them to theknutters@wi.rr.com so we can post them on our site.

It brought tears to my eyes to read about Alex--we are so, so sorry. We know about this dread disease first hand--but we were some of the lucky ones. Our daughter when she was less than a year old survived the disease because our wonderful family doctor caught the symptoms and took very prompt action--this was before there was a vaccine. Thank you for setting out this TB
