About a month ago our friend Chris Choi found out his little 15 month nephew Noah has a rare form of Brain Cancer. He had a surgery to remove a tumor and cancer in his brain but there is still a sign of cancer in his spinal fluid. Noah will be starting chemotherapy treatments. About a week ago Noah and his mom flew to St. Judes hospital in Nashville. Today Noah's family had a fund raiser to raise money to help pay for medical bills.
La Choi's held a spaghetti lunch for $5 a plate to help raise money. They had a raffle and also face painting. Noah is so loved. there were so many people there.
They had a live singer and she wrote a song for sweet Noah. When she started to sing it i couldnt help but choke up. i cant remember all of the Lyrics but the part that sticks out in my mind had something to do with that he was so young and didnt quite understand why he had to go through all that pain. i feel so bad. Noah has no idea why HE has to go through this pain... and there is no way to take the pain away. Poor little boy. I could not imagine my little Alexei having brain cancer.
As most of you know, Nick has had a hard time finding a job so we were quite low on funds... but to us spending $10 for lunch and a few dollars on raffle tickets & face painting was something that we needed to do. I have never met this little boy and yet i care so much about how he's doing.
Anyway: here are some pictures from today!
Cute little Noah.

I cant help but be so thankful for having such a healthy family. Something like this really makes you realize how great your life really is. Sometimes life seems so hard, but its nothing compared to what little Noah has to go through.
I love you little Noah and keep fighting!
