Little Kendall earned his angel wings tonight around 8:30 tonight. He was diagnosed with NB in May of 2004, was declared NED (no evidence of disease) in March of 2005, and then in January of 2006 unfortunately he relapsed.
Kendall was diagnosed with Stage IV neuroblastoma, a very aggressive childhood cancer, just after his second birthday. He completed six rounds of chemo, surgery to remove the remaining tumor, TWO stem cell transplants (rescues), 15 rounds of radiation, and six months of Accutane therapy (yes, the acne medicine) to try and prevent a recurrence. He made it through all of that with courage, strength, and good humor, and with his twin, Zachary, by his side.
Here is a link to his site if you would like to leave a comment for his family. I'm sure they'd like to know so many people care for them. =)
Thank you!
