Johnny Had Been In School For Just Two Weeks When Doctors Found The Worst Kind Of Brain Cancer.

He was starting school like every other little boy. Two weeks in, his parents noticed swelling behind his eyes. An urgent CT scan revealed the unthinkable. Medulloblastoma, one of the most aggressive variations of brain cancer.

Five days later, Johnny was in surgery. Nine hours on the operating table. His family held their breath through every one of them.

Then came the scan everyone hoped would show the tumors were gone. It didn't. Two more tumors had appeared.

Nothing prepares parents for the thought of losing their child. But there is hope. A DFMO trial in America has shown real success. The drug itself is free, but the scans, blood tests, flights, and insurance must all be self-funded. The cost is 210,000, and because of how quickly Johnny's cancer grew, his family has only 60 days to get him on the trial.

His mother said the words no parent should ever have to say. If he doesn't get on this trial, she doesn't think he'll be here this time next year.

She wishes it was her instead. She dreams of watching him grow up, seeing him go to school, taking trips together. When Johnny is asked what he wants to be when he grows up, he smiles and says maybe a robot.

Money should never be the obstacle between a child and the chance to live. Your donation today can help get Johnny to this trial in time. Please give now.
