“Reason this person is a Gold Ribbon Hero: Ayven is a 5 year old champion fighting acute b-cell lymphocytic lymphoma. He is always smiling and never complains about going inpatient for chemo! He carries on every day in his normal routine as much as he can and doesn’t let cancer get him down! If you ask him how he’s doing, he always says, “I’m good!” He loves to joke and take silly pictures. His personality is full of life and determination! Ayven’s definitely a hero!” – Misty L.
