My Story

Thank you for supporting me and the more than 300,000 kids worldwide who will be diagnosed with cancer this year. By sharing the gifts of your time, talent and money with the St. Baldrick’s Foundation, you're supporting research to give all kids with cancer a better chance for a cure. Silas has depended on research and on his doctors "thinking outside the box". St. Baldrick's foundation is a great organization because the provide funds for Doctors to do this kind of research and find new treatments and cures for childhood cancer! Children NEED new cancer treatments. They cannot vote, they have no money, and they have no voice. Stand up for the Children and help us fight childhood cancer! Update: Despite every effort being made, Silas passed away from this terrible disease on May 25th, 2013 in his mother's arms. We have to press on and find a cure so that other children to not have to face the same fate!
