**WARNING: SOME PICTURES MAY BE DISTURBING TO SOME VIEWERS**
At the age of 5, AJ Fuller was diagnosed with High Risk Medullablastoma, a form of pediatric brain cancer. This slide show contains some pictures of what he went through, during his almost 1 year of aggressive treatment at CHOP (Children's Hospital of Philadelphia). He is currently being followed at St Jude. AJ will require 10 years of follow up care.
During this time, AJ developed a rather large "following"...people from all over...who prayed for his well being. This video/slide show is also a Thank You to them, for their ongoing support.
AJ decided that Kenny Chesney's song, You Save Me, was fitting, as he listened to Kenny, every day, while in treatment. Kenny's music helped "save" AJ from the daily horror he went through.
This "project" was AJ's idea. He picked the pictures, he put them in order, and he decided on the music. Not bad for a 6 year old.
If you are a parent, please! Get educated on the early signs. The sooner it's caught, the better the chances.
EDIT: on July 3, 2010, we have learned that AJ's Cancer has returned. We are currently going thru the testing to get more information.
What a cute little boy and amazing story! Hope and love often seem to be the greatest weapons when fighting for the lives of those whom we care about.
God has other plans for this young man!
Thank you for sharing!
