GABE<br />
Age 7 | Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia<br />
Little Warrior Gabe was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic<br />
Leukemia on December 22, 2015 and was admitted to the hospital<br />
to begin treatment. That Christmas, Gabe’s family spent Christmas<br />
in the hospital, but not just because of his treatment. On December<br />
24th 2015, his baby sister decided that she wanted to join the<br />
craziness and made her grand entrance into the world. Additionally,<br />
his little brother Fabian had to see the doctor that day too for a<br />
double ear infection.<br />
Treatment for Gabe started and went well. Once Christmas break<br />
was over, Gabe was able to go back to school, where he learned that<br />
his health/fitness teacher had also battled ALL 23 years earlier. The<br />
two have become close and Gabe now affectionately calls him, Uncle<br />
Matt instead of Mr. Browne. Even their families have become friends.<br />
Gabe shares that Uncle Matt “has helped me find ways to cope with<br />
the many difficult times. He’s been so supportive of me and he gives<br />
me hope. When I look at Uncle Matt I know I’m going to be able to<br />
beat this cancer just like he did because we are warriors!”
