This is my son Anthony. He is 16 years old and fighting the fight that no child should ever have to! Anthony was diagnosed in April 2025 with osteosarcoma with metastasis to his lungs.
Days after his biopsy and scans, he started chemotherapy. In July 2025, he had a hip disarticulation (full leg amputation). Weeks later, he started back on chemotherapy. He has been on two different chemotherapy treatments and will start a third chemo regimen tomorrow after today's scan showed progression again in his lungs.
Anthony and I have been living in Seattle at the RMH since April. Those who know our family know we are not new to cancer, but this has been the hardest by far. Anthony is fighting through this with his humorous self and can't wait to get back home and be able to attend school with his friends. He will continue to fight for as long as it takes. Our goal is to have surgery on his lungs to remove the cancer; however, at this time, he is inoperable. We will start a new chemo tomorrow and hopefully get into a clinical trial as soon as March.
We have made it 9 months with just Dad's income. However, funds are getting tight, so we decided to start this fundraiser for those that want to help us keep fighting!
We also have Venmo for those that would rather instead of here. Last four of # is 2146
