Hi. My name is Ben. I want to help kids who have cancer. And I want to support my mom - who is also shaving her head at this event.
The first part was written by Ben himself. Let me (his mom) tell you a bit more about this amazing young man.
He was diagnosed with stage IV Neuroblastoma eleven years ago. He has relapsed three times. He is still undergoing treatment and is considered to have chronic disease.
There is no cure.
But he won't tell you this. He's not doing this for himself. He wants to do this for his friends.
Over the years we have met countless kiddos battling cancer. Unfortunately, many of them have passed away, including Ben's dear friend, Justin. Ben considers being on Justin's St. Baldrick's team a true honor.
You can't say no to this kiddo!! Get out your wallet and donate to FIND A CURE! We need to step it up and SAVE these wonderful children who were dealt a ridiculous hand.
My son included.
Thank you.
