He had a partial liver resection and 2 rounds of chemotherapy, followed by remission. After 18 months in remission, an undifferentiated cancer was found in his kidney and his lungs. Lincoln was 21-months-old at this time. He began chemotherapy again, but after a few rounds, it was unsuccessful in treating the mets in his lungs. In 2017 he was given an opportunity to be on a trial. The trial was working great and keeping him stable. He remained on that medication until the summer of 2021. In February his arm started hurting, after investigation a bone met was found in his wrist. Over the summer his cancer had continued to spread to new locations. Since he was no longer considered stable on his trial med he was put back onto a new chemotherapy regimen in August 2021. Despite chemotherapy, new lesions were found and others continued to grow.

Our mission is to assist children faced with life threatening, sometimes terminal illness. Anything from cancer, special needs, to rare disease. Children and The Earth has come together to create special opportunities for these children and their families to make memories to last a lifetime. We also assist in easing the burden of medical expenses while these children are faced with hard battles. We’ve done it all from checking every item off terminally ill children’s bucket lists to remodeling a home to make it more wheel chair accessible. There is nothing we won’t try to come together to accomplish for these children and their families. Children and The Earth is our heart and soul and we give it our best to be there every step of the way and give back to our community in any way we can. We believe nobody should fight alone and we will never give up!
