This week’s Positive Times Moment requires a box of tissues.
Kenny Watt is a nine year-old boy who is living with an inoperable brain tumor. This is a long term fight that Kenny has been fighting since he was three years-old.
Kenny walked into the ring at the Laramie County Fair 4H Livestock Auction to sell his pig on Saturday with no idea of what was to come. Waiting to bid online was a group of small businesses that got together with one goal, to buy Kenny’s pig.
The bidding finally stopped at $16,000 but the community wasn’t done yet. Before Kenny left the ring over $18,000 in add ons had been made. Kenny left the livestock auction with over $40,000 and that also included other showmen donating their earnings.
When asked what he was going to do with all that money Kenny showed just how big his heart is. It is his little sisters birthday soon and Kenny plans on buying her a present.
