Our friend Will Roberts and his family need our prayers.
14-year-old Will has been fighting bone cancer- he returned home from MD Anderson to Ralph, AL about a week ago after sugeons removed cancer in Will’s pelvis and right femur.
Late this morning, mom Brittney posted this:
“We ended up in the ER last night with Will because he was having chest pain and shortness of breath. Thank God nothing showed an emergency cause — no fluid, no collapsed lung, nothing dangerous that needed immediate intervention. The doctors believe his pain may have come from coughing, congestion, and trying to guard his core after such a major surgery. For that protection alone, I’m grateful.
“But this morning, when the full radiologist report came into MyChart, my heart sank. There were findings that point to possible progression of his cancer in his lungs, and maybe even his liver. Not the news a mama wants to wake up to.
“Even so… God is still God.
He was God last night when fear tried to creep in,
He was God this morning when I read the report,
and He will be God tomorrow when we take our next step.
“We will trust Him in every breath, every scan, and every hard moment. Will is a warrior with a strength that can only come from above, and we will continue to MARCH FORTH knowing God has not left our side for a single second.
“Thank you for every prayer, every message, and every ounce of love you pour over our family. Please keep praying- we believe in a God who still moves mountains even when all we can see are valleys.
“And just to show he’s still my baby through all of this… here’s how I found him this morning: Jason kicked out, and Will taking up most of the bed beside his mama like old times. 
“Even on the hardest days, God still gives us light in the middle of the storm.
“Just pray. We have our petscan this Friday. Pray that our miracle comes!!! I will not let the devil win this battle by stealing our joy during the darkest moments of my life. We will laugh, we will joke and we will make every day count as our last.
“I refuse to let fear take over my mindset with this new hurdle. God’s ultimate plan is in place and I have Faith that He will never leave us regardless of what our ending holds.”
Like you, I am very sad and worried seeing this news, but as you can see, the Roberts truly believe in the power of prayer.
Let’s send Will, his parents Jason and Brittney and his sister Charlie our best.
This fundraiser is for the Roberts family — the kind of family who would do anything for anyone. They are the people who show up without being asked, lend a hand without expecting thanks, and give from the heart without ever keeping score.
Now, it’s our turn to show up for them.
Their beloved son, Will Roberts, has been diagnosed with osteosarcoma — a rare and aggressive form of bone cancer. He is facing the fight of his life, a battle no child and no parent should ever have to endure.
Between constant hospital visits, chemotherapy, travel expenses, missed work, and mounting medical bills, the financial strain is growing quickly. And yet, this family hasn’t asked for help — because asking has never been who they are.
So we’re asking for them.
Whether you’re able to donate, share this message, or simply keep Will and his family in your prayers, every single act of support matters more than you know.
Together, we can help carry them through this fight.
