I am always amazed at the strength and courage Joshua shows. Even lately, it seems all of his senses are in overdrive. Everything seems to smell funny and nothing is quite right. Nothing has changed in his chemo so I am constantly wondering why?
The real answer is because Joshua has cancer and he is going through chemotherapy.
Some of Joshua’s closest friends had cancer or still have cancer. They are just as strong, brave, and wonderful.
They are Cancer Kids!
There are other wonderful and amazing kids out there too. Kids that are once in a lifetime heroes and kids that are everyday heroes. Sometimes you focus so much on the ones that need that extra special care that you forget the others.
NOT TODAY!
Today, Lee and I sat down with Joshua and told him about another amazing and wonderful young man named George. George had a class project to create a business plan from beginning to end and send the money that he raised to a charity. His charity or cause was the Joshua E. Gandy Trust Fund. He sold Greek pastries outside of his grandfather’s store over the holidays and raised quite a few dollars for Joshua’s Trust Fund. Quite a few!

He is a Hero in our book. He has strength, courage, and generosity.
He is simply amazing.
George, Joshua and the family thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You are a remarkable young man and you will grow into a very caring and generous adult. I know your parents and family are very proud of you! I know we are!
Did I mention that George is just about a year or two older than Joshua?
