They have endured the most horrible situation you can imagine and throughout everything Maya has been keeping a blog to update everyone on their journey. Their little boy, Ronan, was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma in August 2010 when he was three years old. He just lost his battle with this horrible disease yesterday...one day after Mother's day and a few days before he would have turned four.
Maybe you don't want to read something that will make you cry - I guarantee you this will. Or maybe you just don't want to ruin your good mood or you would rather focus on your own problems. Most of us spend so much time and energy worrying about our everyday problems we forget that there are other people who are going through horrible situations that we could not even imagine.
If you can't quite manage to read through Maya's posts...even the latest one. At the very least, will you read about the Ronan Thompson Foundation? If you can, donate to help their cause. The very least you can do is to spread the Thompson Family's story so that we can all pitch in to help find a cure for this abhorrent disease. And maybe you can offer your support to the Thompson's during this unimaginably painful time. It doesn't matter if you don't know them - you will after reading their story. Keep little Ro's spirit alive - spend a little of your time reading about him and sharing his story.
Here is Ronan...
