To all our family, friends and loved ones who have come to know and love Aiden I’m fundraising on behalf of my little brother, who in late March came to discover he had Acute lymphoblastic Leukemia. At just 15, Aiden's world as well as my family's was flipped upside down.

Almost instantly he was started on an intense treatment plan, one that requires frequent hospital visits and long days at the clinic. He’s been incredibly strong through all of this — but it hasn’t been easy. For everyone who knows Aiden he is the life of the party and is always there to please the crowd with his humor and affection. Like any teenager he loves his video games, movies, music and his space to be who he is. These frequent and sometimes long visits at the hospital have been mentally and physically draining on him some days though his spirits have been great.

As Aiden moves to his next phase of treatment there will be more hospital stays and side effects he will have to endure. As my parents have been there every step of the way with him these next few months, our dad has decided to take time off work to support both Aiden and my mom as well as drive him to appointments, sit with him during treatments, and be there through the tough days. As you can imagine the costs of gas for travel, meals during long hospital days, and any other unknown events that may occur at times can accumulate in cost while my dad has taken time off work.

Aiden has received so much, love, support and especially the power of everyones prayers which has been life changing itself, and anything you can give — whether donation, a share, or simply keeping Aiden in your thoughts — means the world to us. Your support means the most and helps us focus on what really matters right now, showering Aiden with love and strength to keep fighting through all the difficult days.

From the bottom of our hearts we truly thank everyone who has joined us in this journey with Aiden and the abundance of love he very much appreciates from each and every one of you. Thank you.
