Inspiration: Leah & Devon Still
Leah & Devon's lives changed in 2014; however, their STRONG mentality helped show us all how powerful Hope can be.
At 4 years old, Leah was diagnosed with Stage 4 neuroblastoma. Months passed with countless treatments, including chemotherapy, radiation therapy, scans, a grueling 7-hour tumor removal surgery, fear.
Somehow, through all of these trials, the Still family showed us faith and resilience.
"You
ready to get this cancer up out of you?"
Devon Still, a former Penn State Captain, and professional football player used his platform to inspire Hope for not only their battle but for every other child out there experiencing pediatric cancer.
Leah Strong inspired millions, proceeds from the sale of Still's jersey were donated to cancer research.
"Daddy, did I beat up cancer?"
On March 25th, in 2015, the Still family received the news from her doctors that Leah was in remission.
Inspired by their journey, Leah & Devon formed the Still Strong Foundation, that provides assistance to families whose children are battling cancer; providing Hope to so many!
From all of us at Seats of Hope, we thank the Still family for their inspiration and their commitment for change in the future. You spread so much Hope!
