In Iowa, three years ago, a fifth grade boy, Drew Wall,  was told he had to lose his leg due to cancer. The cancer then spread to his right lung, five times. He finished his last round of chemo last week. He is due to begin high school in a few weeks. On Friday, tumors were found on his left lung. There are no more chemo options. On his blog he wrote, "After all, I have a lot to be happy about" followed by a list that included not having to vomit from chemo any more, the fact that the tumors are now on the other lung where there is less scar tissue and his prosthetic leg which allows him to run, kick and get lots of attention from girls! He then promised to Live Strong by maintaining a positive attitude through whatever life throws at him.

I promise to Live Strong by trying to be more like this kid.
