Thanks for visiting our web page. It has been provided to keep people updated about William. He was diagnosed with a brain tumor (medulloblastoma) on April 19, 2001 and finished treatment (brain surgery, 31 rounds of radiation, and 1 year of chemo) on June 12, 2002. He relapsed with tumors in his spinal cord on March 19, 2004. He underwent 6 more months of chemo, a stem cell transplant on October 14th, and 15 more days of radiation, and he finished treatment on December 31st, 2004.

*************************************

When William's cancer returned, friends started a prayer circle that met in our driveway three mornings a week to pray for William and our family. Out of that prayer circle came an amazing support network, a miraculous healing for Will, and the Rally Foundation. Rally Foundation, a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization, through volunteers across the country, raises awareness and funds specifically for childhood cancer research to find better treatments and cures for childhood cancers. Since Rally Foundation's inception in our driveway, Rally has awarded over $500,000 in childhood cancer research grants to more than 18 institutions across the country!
