Meet Your Honored Heroes ATL

On February 16, 2010 Mike went to the doctor to get some answers for a recent bump on his head. When the words cancer came out of the doctors mouth, Mike was shocked. He was later diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia. After four rounds of chemotherapy and six hospital stays totaling 53 days, Mike went into remission in August.

His love for life and positive outlook has served as an inspiration to so many and we are thrilled to announce him as our 2011 Atlanta Honored Hero!





This little cute is Samariona! She is 10 years old and is in 5th grade. Samariona was diagnosed back in 2006 and has undergone bone marrow transplants, chemo therapy, and other forms of treatments. Just the picture shows, she loves life and her smile is contagious. She loves to sing, dance and draw.

Please help us continue to raise funds for patients like Samariona!
