Let's help Joshua hear!

Donation protected
Many of you know my infamous nephew Joshua. He's definitely the strongest 17 year old I know and he's going through a rough time/big bump in the road right now. Joshua was diagnosed with grade 3 anaplastic ependymoma (a rare form
of brain cancer) at the young age of 4, and has been fighting like hell ever since. After 7 craniotomies, 3 rounds of high dose chemo, failed clinical trials of oral chemo, multiple blood transfusions (which he's still receiving), Joshua continues to fight with his head high! These last 5 months or so have been really tough on him, physically and mentally, but with his strength and so many prayers, Joshua continues to amaze everyone, including his doctors. Despite being confined to walk with a cane or use a wheelchair, Joshua still loves going out to the movies, hunting Pokemon and being with his family and friends. I still can't believe it, but Joshua is about to start his senior year of high school. Listening in school is key and unfortunately, one of the strong chemo drugs, has caused severe damage to Joshua's hearing. He's currently using a temporary hearing aid, but needs a permanent option. He has been fitted for hearing aids, but has been unable to get them because of cost. I am starting this gofundme to help my family raise money to assist with buying Joshua the hearing aids he needs. I've had so much support through my journey with cancer and a huge part of my reason to fight is because of Joshua's strength throughout his 13 year battle. He is a huge piece of who I am and anything, including, extra prayers, will help right now! Thank you family and friends for always supporting us!
