Check out last year's highlight reel!
To say that cancer has changed our lives would be an understatement. We never imagined that
cancer would affect our lives -no less pediatric cancer. However, pediatric cancer took our son
away from earth, robbing us the opportunity to raise our little boy into a toddler, child, teenager,
and man.
Of course, Mike and I knew of pediatric cancer; but for us it was a rare, far away evil that had
never touched our lives or even the lives of anyone we knew. That all changed when doctors
gave us the devastating diagnosis that our first child, William, had stage 4 cancer when he was
only 3 months old. Will fought hard for 5 months, and despite the efforts of his amazing team of
doctors and nurses, our baby boy joined our Heavenly Father on May 31st, 2019. Will's cancer,
which is still undiagnosed, was too aggressive for his tiny body and his young age limited his
treatment options.
The truth is that cancer is one of the leading causes of death for children and adolescents
worldwide. Over 15,000 children are diagnosed with cancer in the US every year, and more than
300,000 children are diagnosed globally. Although many people don't think about pediatric
cancer every day like we do, every three minutes a family somewhere in the world receives the
devastating news that their child has cancer. Cancer does not discriminate. The next child diagnosed with cancer could be your neighbor, your child's classmate, your niece or nephew, your grandchild, or even your very own little one.
If you don't know anyone with pediatric cancer right now, statistics show that pediatric cancer will eventually touch your life. This is why we support Pediatric Cancer Research and why YOU should too... Join us in creating a cancer free future for our children.

INTRODUCING OUR 2024 WILL'S WARRIOR - ASHLEY THE INCREDIBLE
Ashley is vibrant & fearless little girl, a jokester full of laughter and energy that will light up a room. She effortlessly makes friends with everyone she meets and deeply cares for others. She is a fierce warrior in her battle against cancer and continues to prevail.
In August 2021, Ashley faced her 2nd battle with cancer, undergoing another round of chemotherapy, again at CHOC. Throughout her 18-month treatment of Vinblastine, doctors supplemented her regimen with Avastin, which restricted the tumor's access to blood vessels, depriving them of nutrients to grow. This was evident in her MRI scans as the tumors no longer glowed with contrast; a positive sign that blood flow was being restricted. True to her nature, Ashley formed bonds with every nurse, doctor, and child she encountered during her clinic visits. By spring of 2023, Ashley emerged victorious once again.
Outside of her medical journey, Ashley loves playing with her siblings, Austin, Aubree, & Aiden as well as drawing, swimming, & gymnastics. Despite being limited in certain activities due to her condition, she has adapted to using one eye and remains determined to pursue her dream of becoming a firefighter. Like anyone facing cancer, she asks, "why me?" and needs encouragement to endure, yet through it all, she embodies the spirit of a lionheart.
