Many of them spend most of their time in hospitals instead of at home with their family or in school with classmates and friends. Sadly, these kids are rarely ever given the chance to live a normal life like other children their age.
Drake Medinger, a 10-year-old boy from Tomball, Texas, is battling cancer and the ill effects of chemotherapy. His mom, Jessica, shared his photos on Facebook along with the daily struggles that Drake goes through. The photos and the message have gone viral.
