A Living Miracle
Many people have diseases some curable, some incurable. I'd like to talk to you today about little 3 year old Gabriel Howell from Bedford, IN. He has a Melanotic Neuroectodermal Tumor on his face. He has been battling this disease since he was 3 months old.
Melanotic Neuroectodermal Tumor is a development disorder infants get at birth. It can start as a black legion and effects the jaws.
Gabe has underwent chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. His mom says,"He battles it like a champ, he's a true fighter..we hope we can keep him around a little bit longer." And his dad says,"During this whole time, we haven't been able to connect with someone who has dealt with this at first hand, successfully."
Gabe's dad is a member of the Oolitic Volunteer Fire Department. One day he got to ride in a firetruck to Bedford Airport where he took a special helicopter ride. He is such a special boy and a wonderful living miracle.
