sept childhood cancer month 0001

September is National Childhood Cancer Month...please remember the GOLD ribbon for the too many children fighting- and the WAY too many children who paid the price for underfunding. WE NEED A CURE! Coleman fought medulloblastoma (brain cancer) from the age of 2 and a half until he went to heaven less than a month after his 5th birthday.
He has a twin brother Caden who misses him so much. Caden was Coleman's best medicine as he went through numerous spinal taps, a port placement, too many rounds of chemo to count, radiation, omaya port placement in his head, and endured having to be separated from his best friend during the 30 day stem cell transplant process.
The 30 days apart was hard on them both- now Caden has gone 8 months without his brother...
He started Kindergarten without Coleman by his side...he walks around lost at times...he talks about Coleman every single day.
It's not right- it wasn't "Long Enough" together.
We continue to take one day at a time and continue in the fight against Childhood Cancer!
There are so many families still fighting and they need our help.
Please wear GOLD and help spread awareness for these children. They need every voice they can get!
THANK YOU!

Love this video. We lost our sweet DaNNY on June 30, 2010. He was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia FLT3-ITD on July 17th, 2009. He went through 9 rounds of chemo, 8 sessions of total body radiation, a bone marrow transplant. He put up a fight, only to lose it from the effects of the treatment. His poor little heart could not handle it all. He was 6 years 10 months and 2 days when he passed away at the U of MN Amplatz Childrens Hospital, My heart goes out to you guys!

great video! Its so sad that these kids have to suffer through something no kid should ever have to go through! But you just have to remembe rthat God never gives you something to face you cant handle! But no matter what NO one needs to fight cancer and have to wake up everyday in a hospital bed and wonder "how long do I have???" God bless them! Also, everyone who has cancer is helping research little by little...
