3 Little Birds 4 Life Details
3 Little Birds 4 Life is a nonprofit organization that enhances the lives of cancer patients, ages 25-55, one wish at a time.Our story:In February of 2010, Tyler was diagnosed with malignant melanoma. It first started as a mole on the back of his calf which did not get treated right away. He had the mole removed but it unfortunately came back as melanoma. Tyler had a Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan and the results were that the cancer had spread to his lymph nodes in his groin. He had the lymph nodes removed and all was clear. Three months later, Tyler had another PET scan. The melanoma had spread to his liver, heart, spleen, and bones. It was only a short three months later that he passed away. It was only a total of nine months from learning about his melanoma to his death on November 2, 2010.It was through all of the treatments, surgeries, and the final stages that I realized that Tyler, at 28 years old, needed to have one more great day doing the things that he loved. So, while he was still able to walk, I talked to the St Louis Cardinal organization and had the perfect day made for him. That was the last time my brother was able to hang out all day and walk, through this wonderful experience. It was 6 weeks later, after his Wish, he passed away. I thank the Cardinals for such a great day and for the experience my family was able to spend with him cheering on the team that he loved.In the endeavor to make Tyler's Wish come true, I quickly realized that it was necessary for other families, currently battling a cancer diagnosis, to be able to experience a Wish. Tyler was granted an experience of a lifetime with the World Champion St Louis Cardinals – to sit in the press box, meet the announcers, and go on the field before the game during batting practice. A few months after Tyler's death…3 Little Birds 4 Life was created in his honor.For volunteer opportunities or to get involved visit: http://bit.ly/1go4973
