Camden began having problems with his ears and balance at the beginning of
2007. After several weeks of appointments with many different doctors, a CT
scan showed a tumor on Camden’s brain in February 2007. Camden was flown
to a hospital several hours away from home for brain surgery to remove the
tumor. The pathology report showed that Camden had medulloblastoma, a type
of brain tumor, which had also spread to his spinal cord. He underwent chemotherapy
treatments until shortly before he passed away in September 2008.
Camden loved to watch movies, play with his puzzles and playdoh, read books,
sword fight with his brother, and listen to music. He was a personable kid who loved to
interact with others. His mom says, “He had the best spirit of anyone I know; and
I, as his mother, looked up to him for strength and support. What he had to endure on a
regular basis was something I don't know I would be able to do and with such a wonderful
character.”
