Wyatt was diagnosed in January 2008 with stage 4 high risk neuroblastoma when he was 3-years-old.  He underwent multiple rounds of chemotherapy, MIBG therapy, tumor reduction surgery, stem cell transplant and radiation. After over a year of treatment, Wyatt was no evidence of disease (NED). 

In February 2011, at the age of 6, Wyatt’s family was given the heartbreaking news that the cancer had returned in his spine. After more treatment, Wyatt relapsed again February 2015. He is currently back in active treatment at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.

Adam is a funny and caring animal lover.
Parker is a shy, timid boy with a huge, caring heart. After leg and stomach pain, he was diagnosed with rhabdomyosarcoma. Because of the tumor's location, surgery wasn't possible so he had chemotherapy for 42 weeks. Today he has been declared cancer-free!
Sawyer is a young man with a big personality who always shows so much love for others. When he was diagnosed with germinoma, treatment had to be tailored specifically to him since he also has Down syndrome. Luckily, it worked and today Sawyer is NED!
