one for liam.

A teammate of mine, Kat Hardaway, is running in honor of Liam Fisher who is 18 months old and is suffering  from Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. He was diagnosed at 8 months and has been battling it for over 10 months. I can't even imagine what all this poor little baby has had to go through and what all his parents are dealing with.

On Thursday, Liam's leukemic blast cells were extremely high, around 45%. This morning (Friday) he was rushed via ambulance to the hospital in Charleston. His bone marrow aspirate results show 90% blast cells. They give him a 5 to 10% chance of living through the day. He will have several procedures done today and they hope he will make it through. So please keep this family and little Liam in your thoughts and prayers. Hopefully there will be a miracle and this little guy will grow up healthy and strong.
