What a saint is to me

A hero to me is an adorable little guy by the name of Travis who is now 11 years old. I met Trav(this is what he likes to be called, more grown up) when I was going through radiation and Chemo treatments at the hospital. He had just turned 7 and was long term patient at the center.. He had been going through treatments for 2 years by that time. Trav gave me many tips on how to beat the symptoms from Radiation and Chemo. I learned the one of singing off key to silly songs when the pain of chemo was a gettin to us. This would really drive the nurses nuts and Travis got such a kick out of it. He would make us laugh and made everyone Chemo dolls so we would have something to squeeze or hold when we went through treatments. Travis really made a difference in so many other peoples lives. I would like to Thank his mother for allowing us to know her son and for her sharing him with us as well. I am not sure if I would have been able to get through it all as well without him as such a shining star. Travis is a saint to me and a lot of other people. Thanks Trav. Your friend forever Pam

What is a Saint to me? Unselfish, caring, loving people. I see people who GIVE AND GIVE…never putting themselves first!
Saints lives are filled with dedication and service to others.
My mother is a SAINT!
