Charity Event for Brothers with MDS
A charity car show is set to be held for two brother battling Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) in North Carolina. The community is joining together to raise money for the family who are going through a great deal of emotional and financial stress due to the illness.
Nicholas Cooper is five-years-old and living with myelodysplastic syndrome, the cancer formerly known as “pre-leukemia.” His brother Nathan, who is only three-years-old, is also suffering from MDS.
This type of cancer is rare among siblings, especially as young as Nicholas and Nathan and doctors across the country have been involved in trying to find the most effective treatment for them.
