Malik's Medical & Family Support

Hi,
My name is Heather. I am setting up this GoFundMe account to help my son Malik is 12teen years old and was recently diagnoised with Osteosarcoma. Currently it is in his leg and they are running test to rule out any spread of the disease.

For those of you that don't know, Osteosarcoma is the most common histological form of primary bone cancer. It is most prevalent in children and young adults.

For those of you that don't know Malik, he is a force of nature. Anyone who has ever met him, whether it be through sports or school loves him. He has a wonderful smile and the heart of a giant. Malik has been playing baseball and football since he was born. I was coaching football and he was just a baby on the sidelines in his stroller. His main goal in life is to break any and all of his older brothers sporting records. He loves competition and loves a fair game.

This will be the fight of his life. And although I am sure he will handle his part, I need you help with the rest.
Due to horrible twists for fate, I am currently unemployed, without a car and living with friends. And Although they are very supportative, I would really like to be able to have a home with a bed for him (rather than a couch) where he can heal and rest. This is going to test all of our strenghth and I really could use any help now. Between bills and living expenses we are at our wits end.

My boys are my life and I live for them.
Please help if you can.
Heather Thornton
