from Help and Hope Happen Here · host Mark Levine

After Jola Tapper's son Peter was diagnosed when he was 5 years old with Stage 4 Neuroblastoma in October of 2011, he went through a difficult treatment protocol which took him to having No Evidence of Disease on April 12th of 2012. For the next 7 1/2 years, even though he had difficulties, Peter was able to lead as normal and good of a life as possible. Then came December of 2019 and he relapsed by being diagnosed with Synovial Sarcoma. Peter was able to survive for the next 25 months, until his ultimate passing on January 17th of 2022, just 25 days before his 16th birthday.
