On April 16, 2010 Tyler (then age 8) was diagnosed with T-Cell Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. At diagnosis, Tyler had a mass that extended across his chest all the way from his neck to his diaphragm. Tyler completed his treatment and remains cancer free to this day. He is now followed by a pediatric oncologist that he sees for blood work and examinations. He's grown into a very healthy and happy teenager.

Meet our Hero: Michael Bruhn
Michael was a local boy from our area in Southern Oregon. He was diagnosed with Pre B-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in February of 2008 at age 11 and would wage a 5+ year battle with his cancer. Michael would endure pulls, IV's, chemotherapy, spinal taps, bone marrow aspirations, and test after test. Through it all he kept a positive, comforting, and loving attitude.

Sadly, Deven relapsed just 3 weeks later. Deven fought very hard and was awaiting a stem cell transplant, but his body could endure no more and was no longer responding to treatment.
