Support Ronald McDonald House Charities
Meet Kannon, he's a four year old from Spokane, Washington that was diagnosed with a cancerous tumor in his kidney, otherwise known as Wilm's tumor. Three days after being diagnosed, Kannon was at Seattle Children's for surgery to remove the tumor along with his kidney. The procedure marked the beginning of a long recovery and a seven-month stay at the Ronald McDonald House in Seattle.
Kannon and his mom Kellee are very thankful for the House. "Being able to stay here means one less worry for us – and more time to focus on Kannon’s health,” says Kellee. “When we came here, Kannon was so sick that he couldn’t be in public. The services at the House meant we didn’t need to worry about going anywhere other than his appointments. And here, we live a block from the hospital, so we are always near his medical team. Without the Ronald McDonald House, none of this would be possible."
Kellee says living at the House and being around fellow patients has made Kannon more compassionate and enjoys the chance to play with his new friends. His treatment is going well and he hopes to go home soon.
As for his future, he has big plans. He looks forward to being a doctor and if that doesn’t work out, a tow truck driver! He has swept many of the nurses at Seattle Children’s off their feet with his cuteness and charm.
