Aidan's Story

Our lives changed when our five-year-old son, Aidan, was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, a rare form of childhood bone cancer. Through chemotherapy, limb-salvage surgery, and years of additional procedures and physical therapy, Aidan continued to be brave and enjoy life to the fullest. Today, he is 12 years cured, a college graduate, and beginning his career in television journalism.
