This photo is from the emergency room right after my brother was diagnosed. He was really pale and had 98% cancer cells in his marrow.

A few weeks before Easter when I was 8, my little brother began complaining of pain in his legs. On Easter morning, he told me he was too tired to collect eggs and plopped down on a bench outside to watch me gather up his candy. This was NOT typical behavior for a 5 year old and two days later, my mom took him to the pediatrician. She decided to do a blood test and a couple hours later, our family received a call that would forever change our lives, my brother Addison had cancer.
