Please visit her site and send her family your prayers: http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/morganpalmer Tribute to all the kids who are currently battling DIPG each and every day. This type of cancer is so rare that these are the only kids that I am aware of who are current survivors of DIPG. Please pray for their families and all of the others who are now free in heaven. DIPG has no cure and most children die within one year of diagnosis. This debilitating, heart wrenching disease slowly robs children of their motor functions resulting in partial paralysis, loss of voice, sight, hearing and finally an inability to eat and breathe. Please donate to DIPG causes and help us to find a cure.
