Ollie in a crib at Cardinal Glennon.
At just 2 years old, Ollie was stepping into a battle for his life. What started as a simple belly ache, ultimately led to a devastating diagnosis – cancer.
His family’s world turned upside down, but they chose faith over fear. Through every test, every round of chemo, and every uncertain moment, they found strength in God’s plan and the incredible care at Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital.
After months of treatment, prayers, and unwavering hope, Ollie’s tumor shrank. Surgery was successful, and on March 29, 2022, surrounded by those who had fought alongside him, Ollie rang the bell celebrating the completion of his treatment.
Today, ollie, now 6, is in remission and thriving. His family is forever grateful for the expert compassionate care that they received from Cardinal Glennon, giving Ollie a second chance at life.
