Little Aaron Webb appeared to be a perfectly healthy 2 year old this summer; then one Sunday night he woke up feverish, screaming and vomiting. When the fever kept hanging on, mom and dad knew something wasn't right. Then on the fateful September 11th day, Aaron's parents took him to the doctor and he has been in and out (more in then out) of the hospital ever since.
Aaron Webb from Harrison, Ohio has Stage 3 Neuroblastoma, which is a pediatric cancer in his abdomen. As you would expect, his parents are struggling to cope, as is his twin sister, Katie and older brother, Zachary. Please read Mom's Story which tells the story of the Webb family. You may also follow Aaron's daily progress at carepages.com (free registration is required).
The Webb family are parishioners at St. Aloysius Catholic Church, Shandon, Ohio.
