Gold Angel Austin

   Austin was a fun-loving, energetic little boy who loved to run around and play like a typical 5 year old.
   On December 2016, his family received the devastating news from the doctor at Johns Hopkins Children's Hospital that he had leukemia.
   Austin was diagnosed with a very aggressive form called T-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.
   During his treatments he told his mom he doesn't mind that he has to go through all the "pokes" and all the medications.
   Austin said, "Mom, I really don't care, I'll do it and by the time I'm 8 years old I'll be all better."
   "I tried not to cry, his mom said. "But he just has a little heart of gold and I love him with all my heart."
​   Austin endured approximately three years of chemo treatments. 
   Unfortunately, Austin passed when he was 6.
