Andrew Aidan, Our Fighting Warrior!

Andrew Aidan and his dog Beemer have been the pride and joy of their parents, Michelle & Roi ever since they were born. AA loved to take walks outside, play with his best friend Beemer and his Thomas the Tank Engine set of toys along with any other plane, helicopter, car, truck toy he can get his hand on. For those that have met him, they saw the soul of a mature adult in the body of a sweet, loving boy with a beautiful smile. He bravely battled an aggressive, inoperable, rare form of brain tumor called Atypical Teratoid Rhabdoid Tumor or AT/RT that spread to his spine as well. This type of cancer effects less than 50 children a year in this country. He has been an inspiration to us and we are sure he will be a vessel of motivation to those in similar situations. Thank you God for protecting our boy!

Thank You!
Andrew Aidan (R.I.P.) , Michelle (Mother), Roi (Dad) & Beemer

Today has been one of those long days that all I did was cry. It started off this AA's Neuro Surgeon requesting an immediate MRI because there is a possibility that one of the brain surgeries done on him is no longer working and therefore if it is true,he will go back into the OR to have a shunt placed, to help drain the fluid in his brain. MRI is scheduled for tomorrow at 10am. Then AA ends up having a bad allergic reaction to one of the medications that was given to him. This medication was not one of the chemo meds but a rescue med (medication to preserve his kidney and other organs) being that he really needed the doctors chose to premedicate him with all these other meds to prevent another reaction and 30 mins later start the rescue med again
