Zayden Rohrig
She shares:
"He is a amazing boy who tries so hard. He has came a very long way. He is fighting cancer tumors on his brain which lead to his spine. He is a respectful kid loves to help others and cares about others feelings. He loves to makes new friends and tries so hard to make them. He loves sports but unfortunately can't play any due to his condition. Let's give this amazing boy a round of applause for trying hard every day and never giving up and fighting his fears. Congratulations, Zayden Rohrig"
