Meet Parker

Parker is a little boy filled with spunk, smiles, and a zest for life. In June of 2006, at the age of 4, Parker was diagnosed with Stage IV Neuroblastoma. He quickly went from sliding down a waterslide one day to spending the next day in the hospital being told to be ready for the fight of his life. Not only did he have a softball-sized tumor in his abdomen at the time of his diagnosis, he also had cancer in his bones and bone marrow. Parker has undergone several rounds of chemotherapy, surgery to remove the tumor, radiation, and will undergo two stem cell transplants. Although the days ahead will be a tough and bumpy ride, Parker has his helmet on and is ready for the long road ahead. Parker is truly an angel sent from above to teach us all a lesson of wisdom...showing us the courage and strength to move on, fight and persevere through this trying time. One glance of his smile and the twinkle in his eye is enough to light up the room, and through this all, he has remained such a bright shining star.
