Ian was diagnosed with Anaplastic Ependymoma, a rare brain cancer, one week before his 8th birthday. He receives treatment at St. Jude Children’s Hospital in Memphis. Ian’s an old soul who loves all sports, animal facts and a good dad joke. 

"Thank you for your endless support and love in honor of our sweet Ian. We’ll continue to fight for research so he, and so many other kids like him, have a chance to grow up. To quote Ian, “Cancer is an important issue to me because it hurts, I just simply think it’s dumb, and it ruins my normal life.” -The Larew Family
