Thomas Peterpaul Welcome to Thomas Peterpaul's Web Page. It has been provided to allow everyone to show their love and support for Thomas, Frank, Barbara, Robert, Julia and William. Having been diagnosed with leukemia in Feb. 2003, Thomas has fought many battles during his cancer treatments - appendicitis, blindness in one eye, chemotherapy side effects, confined to a wheelchair his last 5 months, bacterial & fungus infections to name a few. Unfortunately, his disease relapsed in Feb. 2004 and he was forced to endure another round of intensive chemotherapy and radiation. He underwent a stem cell transplant which took place on Friday, 7/23. He beat his leukemia and survived his transplant, but died on 9/11/04 from complications caused by a virus. He experienced so many obstacles during his battle but faced each and every one with a positive spirit. He was truly a courageous young man and is an inspiration to all. Please add your well wishes and prayers to his guestbook. Please visit The Thomas Peterpaul Foundation website at:

----------------------------------------------------------- There are many times during our lives where we wish we could make a difference in this world, and through Thomas, we became aware of the following acts of kindness that people can do: 1. GIVE BLOOD - Blood transfusions are imperative to the survival of a cancer patient. To see how important blood donations are go to the following link: http://www.givelife2.org/aboutblood/bloodusage.asp
2. If you have not done so already, GET REGISTERED on the National Marrow Donor Program Registry. http://www.marrow.org/HELP/join_the_registry.html
3. Last, donate to The Thomas Peterpaul Foundation. It's charter is to raise funds for pediatric cancer research and make donations directly to needy patients and their families. Please visit The Thomas Peterpaul Foundation site: http://www.thomaspeterpaul.com
