Duane gets his Bone Marrow Transplant today!
He has over a month left in this hospital room, but he DID have his bone marrow transplant today. He was feeling yucky but he still had huge smiles for me. This boy is such an inspiration!
Let me tell you a story about this sweet boy. This is Duane and he has cancer. He is going to be spending his Christmas in the hospital receiving treatment until the middle of January. Why don't we all give him some extra love, support and brighten his Christmas spirit and send him some cards and gifts to help him get through this hard time and PRAYERS that this is his last Christmas with cancer? It must be so hard for this little guy to spend his Christmas feeling yucky and stuck in his hospital room. He loves Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Super heroes and video games just like every other 5 year old boy. PLEASE SHARE SHARE SHARE!
The address to send cards and gifts is-
P.O. Box 10, Lilburn GA 30048

This little man was so full of smiles and LIFE. He just wanted to run around and have FUN. I just loved his spirit and his JOKES. his laughter was contagius for sure. I pray that after his transplant he can get back to being the super hero he was born to be. Running full force and saving the world!
Here is his story.
Stephen “Duane” is an adventurous 5 year old, how loves dragons, superheroes and playing video games like your average 5 year old. He was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma in May 2013 he had what was said to be a simple surgery, became a lifesaving surgery and removal of his right kidney. In May 2015 he had unexplained leg pain, doctors later informed us that he relapsed it spread to his spine and bones and is a Stage 4. He has already gone through 5 rounds of chemo, minor complications along the way he still stays smiling and laughing. He is set for MIBG therapy in a couple weeks and Stem cell therapy that will have him in the hospital for 1 month at a time. With a long road ahead he takes advantage of every break he gets from hospitals. He wishes that as soon as all of his treatment is thru he can build a sand castle for the first time and see Mickey Mouse at Disney world.
