Kids – Why We Fight

Kevin Cordasco

Kevin Cordasco, 16, has sadly lost his battle with neuroblastoma. You may remember us telling you about Kevin a few months back, when he was named the honorary mayor of Calabasas. Kevin was diagnosed with NB when he was 9 years old. He fought through bone marrow transplants, surgeries, experimental drugs, chemo, radiation and several relapses – never losing his positive spirit and outlook on life. He inspired hundreds, teaching them how to “live life to its fullest and be kind to one another”, according to Calabasas Mayor Mary Sue Maurer. Our thoughts and prayers are with Kevin’s mother, father and brother. calabasas.patch.com.
