Louisiana Angels Benefit Pageant

http://joshualukejones.tripod.com/





Josh Luke Jones has become a special little boy to all that know him and to many that have met him and heard his story. At the tender age of 4 1/2 he lost his Mother (she was just 25 years old at the time of her death). He lived with his Aunt Vickey & Uncle Luke DiMattia following the loss of his mother until his Grandmother Peggy Jones (Ms. Vickey’s Sister) was granted full custody of him. In Feburary of 2009 Josh was dealt another tragedy. His Aunt Vickey noticed his eye didn’t look right & she spoke to her sister about it and they followed up with a visit to the eye Doctor. The Doctor immediately sent him to a specialist. The specialist sent him to Children's Hospital and within 12 hours of being admitted they did emergency Brain surgery to remove a tumor. Unfortunately it was cancerous & The tumor was the size of a hard boiled egg. During Surgery Joshua had to have an incision from the top of his head to the bottom of his neck. He lost most of his vision due to where the tumor was. The cancer is called Medulla Blastoma, It is a very fast type of cancer. He has been through radiation already and now battling the dreadful Chemo. He will have Chemo every 3 1/2 weeks. They are giving him the strongest that they can give a 7 year old. Joshua is a trooper and even on his sickest days, if you ask him how he’s doing today he answers "I am doing fine". This benefit is to help Joshua and his Grandmother Peggy Jones of Livingston La. The cost that they have incurred is enormous. ANY and ALL help is very much appreciated!!!
