Last October this little 4 year old was diagnosed with brain cancer – Parameningeal Rhabdomyosarcoma, (aka RMS). He was quickly put into an aggressive treatment program.  The family moved from home, to be close to the Children’s Hospital where he’s receiving treatment. His brother Ty, had to change schools, make new friends, but is forever supportive. By Christmas he had lost all of his hair, but none of his spirit!  Colton says “Courageous people never give up and nothing is going to steal my joy.”

We want to give Colton a gift, for his fight, for his flight.

Lauren

I first met Lauren when she was only 3. About 6 months later, I learned that she had been diagnosed with leukemia. That ripped my heart out.  This sweet, smart little girl didn’t deserve this. She spent the next 2 years in hospitals, undergoing treatment including chemotherapy.  She has two wonderful parents, one of whom is a flutist, the other a horn player. They were honored in her piece, with solos by those instruments.
