Hey Everyone, We are now 15...

Hey Everyone, We are now 15 months into our Battle with Cancer. It has taken such a toll on our lives, I can honestly say their is not one person or thing in our lives this hasn't effected. I never knew what this could and would do to your life...I was one of those who thought this will not happen to me or my children...WAKE UP CALL came July 12th 2010. Now here I am and we need help with some home repairs. I live in a mobile home and since my home was built in 1973 we can not get any assistance to fix things so I am asking people to donate so I can fix it. Its hard enough fighting this let alone trying to do it in a drafty house that needs some work...PLEASE GIVE

Hey everyone, Its been a while...

Hey everyone, Its been a while since I updated. Joseph had a great summer his counts were good most of the summer and he was able to enjoy being 17 at the beach. It was so amazing to just see him enjoy the little things in life. We just had a small set back now that the temps are getting cooler. It reminded us quickly that we are still fighting cancer...with a short hospital stay for a head cold. We have a new goal we are trying to reach so we can get some repairs done to our heating system before it gets much colder. Thanks for your prayers and help.

About This Page

Hey there,

My name is Joseph  ( AKA Homer ) I am 17 yrs old. My whole life changed July 12 2010,  I woke up not feeling real well, I had a temperature so my mom took me to the hospital. We live in Greenville , Sc.  Mom thought I had the Flu,  After some normal blood work the Dr told my mom I have Acute Promyelocytic Myeloid leukemia. I spent 42 days in the hospital before I could go home. It was very hard on my family. 

I love to play Xbox, ride my 50cc moped. I love hiking in the woods and listening music. I drive my mother crazy walking around tapping out the beat. Best show on TV is Gene Simmons Family Jewels, I wanted to meet him and his family for make a wish but it did not work out. I love to take stuff about and figure out how it works , I plan to take Auto repair so i can own my own shop someday.  When I can I love visiting the beach. So I can watch the girls, I am a normal 17 yr old boy or I was until  this all began.  It's been 15 months since I was diagnosed with Cancer that's a scary thing for anyone let alone a teen age boy or any child. My family has incurred around $400,000 dollars worth of bills. Our insurance only covers so much so we are asking for your help. Give if you can and thank you to those who have given. Please pray for my continued fight against childhood cancer.
