After a visit to a walk-in clinic for a high fever and cough, an X-ray showed that Caleb, an active 11 year old, had pneumonia and what doctors thought was an enlarged heart.
Caleb was referred to his doctor for a follow-up and was given a CT Scan. He was sent to Lurie Children's Hospital Emergency room in Chicago, IL. Many tests were run, and Courageous Caleb endured them without anesthesia. The doctors feared the mass found was putting too much pressure on his trachea to put him to sleep. Caleb never once complained.
Days later Caleb's parents got the news that no parents should ever hear.
Caleb was diagnosed with Lymphoblastic Lymphoma and immediately began aggressive treatment.
Caleb has already proven to be an inspiration to his family and friends! He hasn't cried, and he pushes through with a smile. He continues to say, "It's okay. I will beat this!!"
Caleb is a determined young man with a huge battle ahead of him!
His parents need to take time off of work to get him to treatments, and his treatments are a good hours drive away from home. This will have to be done on a regular basis.
The family needs not only prayers and love, but they need the financial assistance to assure they can support Caleb and not have worries about missing work.
Please consider donating to help this beautiful, courageous boy and his famly as they fight this battle!
