The parents were insightful to keep a journal of all the tests, medicines, etc. It will always be a reminder of what they and their son went through. It is also wonderful that they were willing to share this very personal journey with other parents. Thanks so much for your thoughtful comments!

Sharing Lou's experience gives other parents hope and guidance on how to be an advocate for their child. It can be intimidating to refuse to accept the diagnosis of the "authorities." Mark and Mary Ellen kept looking for an answer. "No dead ends, only new paths!" Thanks for your thoughtful comments!

Lou won over my heart with his personality and beautiful smile! Thanks for reading and commenting!InStoree wrote: ↑12 Jun 2020, 05:36 This is the first time when I read about this disease, Legg-Calvé-Perthes. Lou seems such a brave, wise kid. What his parents have gone through! Fighting against cancer and overcoming the medical, financial obstacles are some rough challenges. Your review emphasized the emotional and sensitive read. Thank you, but I think I'll skip this one.

It is difficult to read about children who get sick and have to go through painful treatments. Lou was amazing! His story will motivate you. Thanks for your thoughtful comments!
