Maddox needs a second opinion
Donation protected
For those who don’t know that my friend Brittany’s son Maddox had another relapse a few weeks ago. Maddox was first diagnosed with ewing's sarcoma in June of 2018. The first time he was diagnosed the tumor was coming off his 9th rib. They treated with lots of chemo and radiation and also surgery to resect it. Later Maddox was considered NED. It came back again December 2020 on his spine and he had no mobility to his legs so they had to do emergency surgery to relieve pressure off his spine and got most of the Tumor removed. He was considered NED after lots of chemo and radiation. A few weeks ago they found 2 confirmed cancer lesions. One on his left femur ( the neck of his femur so basically his hip), and another spot outside his left lung. Possibly his knee now. They did radiation on 2 of the spots that they have confirmed as cancer so far. The doctors told Brittany in private that they don't know of anything that will cure him. We can do some clinical trials but they don't think chemo will be effective.
So there is another option and that is to go to Seattle childrens hospital where they take his t cells and do T-Cell immunotherapy. We are waiting to hear back from the doctors to see if Maddox is even eligible. In the meantime we would like to get a second opinion from a ewings sarcoma specialist in Cleveland Ohio named Peter Anderson.
The donations would go towards getting that virtual second opinion. We appreciate all the support over the years, prayers and really praying that this second opinion will lead us to cancer free life!
