Winner Game 1-Saturday

Although winning games is just icing on the cake. I know it was important for his teammates.

This is the first goal Wil saw his team score since he was diagnosed. He almost jumped out of the car with excitement. Thank you for capturing the moment! Much love for these boys! #cancersucks

Wil did not have the best morning but he really wanted to see "the boys." Ohler worked hard to get a mattress and the wheelchair in the car. Wil was not feeling so good, so we arrived a little after halftime. He was hoping to sit up in the wheeelchair for a bit, but that didn't work out so Ohler backed the car up to the field. Wil said, "wow look at all the people in orange." (If anyone has a crowd pic plz send, so sad I didn't think of it) It was fun to sit and listen to Wil narrate the game, he knows these boys very very well ðŸ˜‚. When he watched Mitchell finish and score Wil started pounding on the window and then when Mitchell came right over and pointed at Wil, he opened to door to give Mitchell and the boys a "fist pump" in the air! Wil has been playing with these boys for a long time and the families are the best. We have so many crazy out of town stories (and that's just the parents ðŸ˜‚). Coach David Geerlingand Coach Michael Skordos are great role models on toughness, discipline, and kindness. They balance each other out most days ðŸ˜ƒ. And I won't let everyone know that Coach Dave is really just a lovable softy with a huge heart, cause that might tarnish his bad-boy image.
Wil then went on to have an ok night. No puking and lots of happy chatter about the game and what the boys need to do next. He slept 5 straight hours and then another 3 and woke up in a great mood. Thanks for the lift soccer family. We love you so much!

Edit I put in comments but should go here!
And when I say SOCCER Community, I mean EVERYONE. Lou Fusz Club, LF Pike boys, Scott Gallagher teammates who came over to say hi to Wil, Lindbergh, CBC , Vianney soccer friends, even lots of St Paul soccer family! The soccer community is amazing! STLFC goalie tweeted at Wil and so many other USL, MSL, and USMNT goalies reaching out to him. The soccer community is a very special group of people whom we are lucky to call family ❤️⚽️

Sorry that I have not updated here as I can not do it from my phone. Wil was in the hospital 2 weeks in April and then on his Make a Wish trip the first week of May. Please follow Wil's story on facebook "Wil Ohler's fight with leukemia #wilswarriors" https://www.facebook.com/Wil-Ohlers-fight-with-leukemia-wilswarriors-174102950041537/

Make A Wish soccer game

It has been awhile since I updated here. It is much easier to do from Facebook if you can follow his story there. CLICK HERE Wil has been struggling with the effects of chemotheraphy. The chemo has not been kind to his stomach, gallbladder, liver, or head. The good day was his MAKE A WISH faculty soccer game. March 15, 2018 Our family is humbled by the support of Wil and the Make A Wish foundation. Thank you from the bottom of our overflowing hearts, we love being a FLYER! -Thank you to Lori Condellire, Susan Dooling, & Beth Johnston for sharing pictures! A few members of the  StepUp  of St. Louis Teen Coalition presented a check from their budget for $100 to be used for Wil's Wish fundraising at the soccer game to day! So cool to see these kids in action. Way to go  Truman Middle School  for organizing such a fun afternoon.  # wilswarriors   # stepupstl
