RILEY

LEN FORKAS IS DEDICATING HIS 23RD MOUNT EVEREST STOP TO HOPECAM CHILD RILEY.

Riley is 7 years old with Medulloblastoma. His tumor was 100% removed with no spread to his spinal fluid, spine, or head. He did, unfortunately, end up with posterior fossa syndrome which left him mute, and unable to move his arms or legs which put him in a wheelchair. A year later he is still in a wheelchair but able to communicate a little more. He had photon radiation at St. Jude and next month he will be finishing up his 7th cycle of chemo. He was a micro preemie (weighing 1 lb 11 oz) and has been fighting his whole life! He's a warrior,  my hero, a fighter, a caring little boy. Thank you so much for everything you have done for my little man!
