Name
Isaak Hanson
Injury/Illness
Cancer
Isaak just turned 1 year old may 13th. Everything was perfect, and he was a normal one year old boy, so happy and full of energy. He had his 1 year checkup on May 15, when his white blood cell count was a little high. The doctor wanted to do an x-ray cause of his history of respiratory viruses, and we were told he has a tumor. He had scans and a biopsy done to confirm neuroblastoma, a rare cancer. He had complications from having the biopsy and ended up have fluid around his lung. He then had to a have blood transfusion due to low hemoglobin, and a chest tube inserted to drain the fluid. Next week we start our long road of beating this cancer. Isaak has been such a trooper and he is our hero.
