marin,
thanks for posting this... one of my patients has the same type of cancer and it mentioned on her website that this young man died... i will be very interested in seeing it.
it is sad, but i'm amazed at how brave these kids w/ cancer are... the little girl that comes to my office that has rhabdo, came in the other day w/ no hair and a mask on. her smile was so big, i could see it in her eyes and she just beamed about just going to the zoo and hoping to get to the aquarium... her enthusiasim is priceless and beautiful.

I just saw something on the news about him. He would've turned 19 next week, and he touched so many lives through his blog. So very sad.
