Ryan Bradley Carson was born via c-section on March 28th at 2:21am weighting 7lbs 13oz and 21in long. He was perfect. Unfortunately, just 12 days later, on April 9, Ryan's parents received the most terrifying news they could possibly imagine.Baby Ryan was diagnosed with a brain tumor located in the middle of his brain. The tumor grew at a rapid speed. If Ryan were an older child (or adult), the size tumor he had would have caused him to be in a coma and/or have severe brain damage. Because he was an infant, his skull had not yet fused and had allowed his brain to expand without being compromised by the tumor. Ryan fought the brain tumor for 30 days before he gained his wings on May 9, at only 42 days old. Ryan's legacy carries on today through his family's work to help families with children who are fighting cancer.
