My sweet nephew (actually cousin but we were always auntie and uncle to him) was diagnosed with a brain tumor on Saturday. He’s young, so smart, so kind hearted, so hardworking…and it’s not fair. I was sucker punched in the gut and thrown by my ptsd back to the day I found out my own son had leukemia 12 years ago. Your world turns upside down in seconds, and the normalcy you thought you had will never, ever be the same…even after you’re cured and come home.
In true Aiden fashion, he has given his tumor the nickname of Dwayne Johnson, as he was told it was basically the calcified ‘rock’ growing in his brain. 😂
He is now at the best place in the world seeing top notch neurosurgeons, and surgery is tentatively set for this Wednesday. They are hopeful that they can remove it, and hopeful that chemo or radiation will not be necessary. The only worry could be that post surgery his speech and memory could be affected…which he is kinda worried about. I would just ask the tumblr universe to keep him in your prayers if you pray, or send all the good vibes their way as they navigate a new norm.
One of their friends started a Go Fund Me for them to help offset travel, medical, and living expenses during this hard time. Thank you, in advance, for any donations or any shares!
