A headache he couldn’t shake led to a devastating diagnosis for 16-year-old Cody Mading. The Estero student was later tested and eventually diagnosed with an aggressive medulloblastoma, a form of brain cancer. The tumor was causing Cody’s headache, as well as some bleeding detected in his brain by an MRI scan. Money raised at December’s First Fridays will go toward Cody’s medical costs with stem cell therapy alone costing $250,000. Cody’s diagnosis came at a time when the family lacks medical insurance.
Cody is one of many people in our local community that could use our support!
We know that every donation counts and if we all unite we can help support our neighbors one month at a time!
Thank you to all those whom attended and contributed to help raise money for Cody!
