I couldn't help but look at this beautiful baby and think how uncertain life is. As you looked into the eyes of that angel who would ever imagine that at the tender age of 5 he would have the battle of his life. It is all so scary... I am so thankful that we know what we know and believe what we do. Because without that how sad life could be. Kiss that little boy for Hap. We sure talk alot about Grant these days I wish they were more personal conversations from personal experiences with him...Good thing for the future. Love, The CLifton's
Grant was diagnosed with ALL T-Cell Leukemia on April 26, 2007. He had been sick almost all winter, getting several ear infections, colds and coughs, strep throat, stomach bugs, fevers, and general feel-bad-all-overness. When he just could not get better, and earned the nickname "The Hulk" because he was starting to look so green, his Mama knew that something was not right. After another trip to the doctor, a blood test was ordered, and within a few hours he and his family were on their way to UNC Children's Hospital in Chapel Hill, one of the top pediatric oncology centers in the nation. The wonderful doctors there are already making progress, and beating this disease.
Anyone who knows Grant knows that he loves his Super Heroes - Superman, Spiderman, Wolverine, Batman, Power Rangers, and on and on. He doesn't just love them, he loves to become them, often dressing up and acting like the Hero of the Day. I think we can all agree that Grant is going to be our favorite Super Hero, and he is going to prove to everyone just how strong and invincible he is!
