Ben's Song

My son Benjamin was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in his right humerus just after Labor Day in 2006. He is currently waging a great war with the disease and is being helped by the Green Drakkoman and his team to defeat the evil alien. Benjamin is 6 years old. He had limb salvage surgery in early 2007. I put this video together using the song was written and recorded by Carl Allocco for Ben through the Songs of Love Foundation project (www.songsoflove.org) please consider making a donation to them. We have created a web site to update everyone as the battle continues - http://www.greendrakkoman.com

Ben ended his journey on October 12th 2009. Thank you for all you did during his journey.

@vinemachine Ben ended his journey on earth on October 12, 2009. He never gave up and lived every day with a sense of humor and zest for life. Osteosarcoma is a monster that takes too many children's lives. Childhood cancers are the cruelest ones.
