Bryan and Shauna Smith will talk about their son Oliver who passed away from Ewings Sarcoma one day after his 12th birthday in 2019, and the Ollie Bots Project that was started in his honor.

from Help and Hope Happen Here · host Mark Levine

When 10 year old Oliver Smith was trying out for his under 11 hockey team in the fall of 2016 his father noticed that Oliver was not as agile, fast, and flexible as he normally was. He also complained of pain in his groin area. Other symptoms arrived and in early 2017, Oliver was diagnosed with Ewings Sarcoma which was already at Stage 4. Oliver fought his battle for nearly 2 and half years before passing away on June 27th of 2019, just 1 day after his 12th birthday. Oliver's parents Bryan and Shauna will talk about their beloved son and the Ollie Bots Project that they started in his honor, which is helping to fund research for Ewings Sarcoma and to help local families fighting Pediatric Cancer.
