Gold Ribbon Hero: Bryson

Meet Bryson, a neuroblastoma warrior. 

When Bryson was 2 years old, his mother found a large lump on the left side of his abdomen. He was taken in for multiple scans and trips between different hospitals including a CT scan. At first, doctors thought it was a Wilms tumor, but later they confirmed it was a malignant mass on his left adrenal gland.

Bryson has undergone 25 cycles of chemotherapy, 47 sessions of radiation, 16 rounds of immunotherapy, 9 major surgeries, a chyle leak and countless life-threatening infections. “He’s been battling for more than half his life and he’s currently on his fourth relapse,” says Bryson’s mother, Lilian. 

Bryson’s life was cut short by this beast of a disease but he will never be forgotten. He is the strongest dude I know. He has the heart of a fighter. He’s gentle, sweet, and kind. He’s a little brother, a nephew, a grandson, a great grandson, a cousin, and our perfect son. Since the day he was born I’ve said he’s too perfect for this world, I just wish this wasn’t true.” 

Despite the countless treatments Bryson has undergone, his family has made the extremely difficult decision to bring on palliative care and hospice and he is planning a wish trip.
