A Gift of HOPE

Hope for Conor_edited-1

Nineteen years ago when Conor, my grandson, was diagnosed, at 15 months old, with High Risk Neuroblastoma, a challenging and difficult to cure #ChildhoodCancer. Back then, it had a 30% survival rate. Every night after work, I would get on my home computer trying to find information. What I found was dismal, even terrifying. After a week, I found a story of a 6 year old boy who was diagnosed at 1 yr. old. He gave me the strength of HOPE that I needed to watch Conor take treatments, chemotherapy, radiation, surgery, scans and more. I now have a chance to give HOPE to any parent or grandparent who needs it. You’ll be able to tell Conor is doing great today, so here’s a dose of HOPE. Maybe it will stick with you on your cancer journey with your child. I would love for this to help you as much as the HOPE a little 6 year old boy gave me years ago. Check it out:
