My wife and I got to know the Knox family over the last year. Our son, Sam, was diagnosed with the same type of cancer as Oscar, high risk neuroblastoma, last Jan. He is in remission now and doing well and we pray he stays like that. The public's support for our little boy was immense and we remain forever thankful to everyone.
The reason I am posting is to just let people know how supportive the Knox family has been to us, even with all they have went through and are going through. Oscar is of course an inspiration to us all and he and his family are never far from our thoughts and prayers.
As other people have said it puts all else in perspective. I often think if everyone could spend a few days on the children's cancer unit their lives would be changed for the better. The bravery of these kids is hard to describe and how they can find time to display such joy and happiness during what they are going through is a constant source of amazement for me.
Oscar continues to show that bravery, continues to live life to the fullest that he can and continues to inspire us all. As do his family.
