7/17/17 surgery #8

Wil is home and he is doing well.
Beyond blessed for amazing nurses and doctors. They are patient and kind and never tire of my endless questions. They are always calm and encouraging and happy to see Wil. They see people at their best and their worst and always offer endless hope. Thankful for their love and care of Wil and all the children in their care.

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

Coaches vs Cancer

Hard to say how proud I am of this kid. Wil received the 2017 Stephanie Phillips Survivorship Award for outstanding courage and leadership in the fight against cancer.

Coach Jason Wolfard at Lindbergh nominated Wil for this award and we are grateful to him and his entire coaching staff.  Staff at Coaches vs Cancer STL doing great work.  Yup, still proud (and let's be real, glad he didn't puke) F-L-Y...E-R-S Here is Wil's speech...
