bryson merriweather is the lad we posted about on 22 february 2008, who, due to his diagnosis of acute myelod leukemia, is in need of a bone marrow transplant. so, to be honest we didnt take all this sudden interest to necessarily be a good thing.

a little while ago we finally mustered up the courage to click a referral link to discover that not only is master merriweather doing well (his leukemia is in remission) and that he has been invited by wake forest linebacker, aaron curry to accompany him on 25 april 2009, to this years nfl draft. see aaron curry invites leukemia survivor to nfl draft [.pdf].
