Diagnosed with a rare brain tumor at age 4, Hedley has gone through many treatments — including proton therapy at Fred Hutch — but continues to live his best life, attending school and playing sports. “The staff made it special, their personal touches really helped,” said Alaynna Elliot, Hedley's mom. “They didn’t treat him like a sick kid. They were patient and answered any questions Hedley had. They also had great recommendations on what to do in Seattle. He usually came out of treatments smiling and goofing off.” Read more: https://bit.ly/3MjzbUW
