I helped to raise money for childhood cancer research with: The Hickey Family

My dear friends Mary and Rory O'Brien lost their beautiful baby boy Danny at 9 months old due to cancer. Danny Boy was diagnosed with a malignant rhabdoid tumor on his liver at just 5 months of age. He underwent several sessions of chemotherapy, which had no effect and couldn't stop the cancer from spreading. He became an angel when he was 9 months old.


In his memory Mary and Rory have raised money to work towards research and a cure in the hopes that one day another family that receive the same diagnosis won't have to face the same fate as they did. They are proud to partner with St. Baldrick's to raise funds for The Danny O'Brien Rhabdoid Tumor Research Fund. To date, the Danny O'Brien RT Fund has supported two research grants bringing us closer to a cure.


Please help support their mission!
