In just a couple months eight-year-old Henry Raymond Debowski㽶Ƶֱs life was turned upside down when he was diagnosed with leukemia.

His mother and father have set up a 㽶ƵֱGo Fund Me㽶Ƶֱ page called 㽶ƵֱHenry vs. Leukemia㽶Ƶֱ with a goal to raise $15,000 to help him beat the disease.

Accoding to the fundraising page, it was only a few weeks ago that Henry lost his appitite, because very tired, sick and lost the pigment in his skin.

㽶ƵֱI was ambulanced to the airport where they flew me to the Children㽶Ƶֱs Hospital in Vancouver (that part was pretty cool). I spent the next couple of days getting blood and platelet transfusions and doing all sorts of tests to find out what my treatment plan was going to be. I will spend the next month getting blasted with chemo,㽶Ƶֱ wriiten on the Go Fund Me page.

Henry loves sports, animals and adores his kitty Rosie.
