Padraig Crowley is a 9 year old boy who lives in Scottsville, NY. In July 2014, he was diagnosed with neuroblastoma stage IV – this is the same disease that took the life of his older brother Cian, just an infant at the time of his death.

After completing 7 rounds of chemotherapy, a 9 hour surgery, two weeks of radiation and numerous immunotherapy treatments, Padraig's cancer resolved in the summer of 2015. Unfortunately, during routine scans this past summer a new spot of cancer was detected on his skull. Padraig immediately resumed chemotherapy and radiation which luckily resolved the spot.

In September, Padraig resumed painful immunotherapy treatment in NYC at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, 6 hours from his home. He will undergo monthly immunotherapy treatment for the next five months – these treatments run over the course of 8 days per month during which time he must stay in NYC, residing at the Ronald McDonald House on Manhattan's Upper East Side.

The costs associated with his care and all the travel required for treatment continue to build. We want to help!
