A single mom is blogging her way through her son’s battle win cancer.  Her five year old son, Mio, was diagnosed with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia, or ALL.

The blog, The Enemy in Mio’s Body, just started in August.  She is telling her story and reaching out for help.  One entry, titled “Setting Things in Motion” she goes into the different fund-raising and organized praying that have been arranged by loved ones:

How do I begin to beg? I humbly admit that yes, we do need your help. I would have wanted Mio to have a normal life and yet here we are faced with the biggest battle. There are warriors putting things in motion and if you’d like to extend your help, no matter how little or how far, it would be an honor for us if you’d bet on my son’s life by participating, sharing the word or simply looking into these projects that Mio’s loved ones are preparing for us.

I encourage you all to click on the blog, with them good luck, and help out where possible.  Any mother would be heartbroken to watch her child battle cancer, and as with most things, that pain is only magnified as a single mom.
