ABOUT OWEN LEA FOUNDATION
Owen
was diagnosed with stage IV Neuroblastoma just two weeks after his
second birthday. After nearly six years of countless rounds of
chemotherapy, radiation, numerous surgeries, a stem cell transplant, and
two clinical trials, on August 26th, 2009, Owen lost his battle and
heaven gained another angel.
The Owen Lea Foundation was
established to provide support to families living with Neuroblastoma.
The financial and emotional burdens of treating a child with cancer can
be devastating. Your assistance will help families alleviate some of
these overwhelming costs that are not otherwise covered by insurance -
such as travel to and from treatment centers and co-pays for necessary
medicines. Sadly in many cases this money also replaces life insurance
which is unobtainable for families in this situation. It is our hope
that with your assistance, these families can focus their energy where
it is needed the most - the care of their child.
