When I went to search for articles talking of people overcoming a struggle or facing a difficulty, it didn’t take me long to find someone in need. A little kid named Austin is in a tough struggle fighting leukemia. He has enlisted the big “Spider-man” to help him defeat the evil monster “Leukemia”. Specifically he was diagnosed with APML Leukemia, which is rare but not uncommon. Currently Austin resides at the Children’s hospital with APML which was the first case found in 2008 and only one other case was diagnosed the year before. APML is a disease of the bone marrow. It’s difficult to battle something you don’t see but feel every minute that goes by, it’s a struggle that tests your limits and strength but not a battle that can’t be won, it defiantly can be defeated. When Austin is cured November 11, 2013 he will be 8 years old, and a hero.
