Micah was diagnosed with neuroblastoma in 2010 and was recruited and signed to TCU baseball in 2014. He has been very close with the team and hung out in the dugout when he was well enough. Super sweet kid who also did a lot of stuff to raise awareness for cancer.
Things looked up for a while, but they have not been good lately. His mom just posted an update and my little frog heart is completely broken.
cancer sucks, but kid cancer....my heart hurts.

It's just that there was a small piece of me that still thought Micah would beat this. I thought this new antibody treatment that had worked so well so quickly might be the new cure. Sometimes I felt naive thinking that but I had hope that Micah would be "the one" that beat it. But he won't be.
Micah's cancer has progressed. He will no longer be doing the antibody and chemo therapy. Micah will be going on hospice soon. He will be enjoying his remaining days with his family.
Cancer doesn't win.
Micah wins.
I've never seen any person endure such suffering with such a positive attitude. Micah celebrates life everyday no matter his circumstances. He always has. We could all learn a lesson from the bravest little boy that ever lived.
At this time we will not be accepting any visitors. Micah still has some energy and we will be enjoying some time away while he is able. We appreciate your texts and emails but please realize we will not be responding to them individually, allowing us to maximize our time with Micah.
