Michael M.

Location: Westminster, CO, US Age: 5

My name is Michael and I was diagnosed with a Wilms Tumor on 1/13/09. My stomach hurt one day so I went to my doctor and they found a big tumor on my kidney. I had to have my kidney removed on 1/15/09. I have undergone chemotherapy for 19 weeks at the Childrens Hospital. It was really tough, I lost all of my hair and felt real bad.

As of 6/09 there has been no evidence of cancer in my little body. Everybody says how proud they are of me for having to go through such a hard time.

Please help fight childhood cancer by donating to my dad since he is going to shave his head on 3/12.
