Today we run for Claire Koreck and Jordon Melton
From her mother Sheila: “Warrior Princess Claire is 4yearsold and was diagnosed with Ewing’s Sarcoma on January 2, 2013. She has endured 6 rounds of chemo, is scheduled to have her humerus bone removed today, and will then complete 8 more cycles of chemo. She has been TRULY amazing and brave beyond words during all of this, and she is an inspiration to the many people that love her. She is a fighter, a warrior, and ‘the beast’ doesn’t stand a chance against her. She is wise beyond her years. She looked at me one day in the hospital and told me, “you can heal with love, you know. That’s what I’m doing…healing with love.”

After a second surgery and clear margins, he was given the ok to play his senior year of football. This picture was taken at his football Homecoming. His girlfriend was crowned queen. Jan 4, 2013, it was comfirmed that ccs was back. Only this time in the liver. Sadly not many options were given, but he tried all he could. He fought to the end. Bravely and always with a smile on his face.”
