On April 12, 2007 (at age 18), Nicholas Raitt was diagnosed with stage 4 alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma - a very rare childhood cancer, located in his right sinus area. On April 15, 2008, he was confirmed to have no evidence of disease (NED). The cancer returned in his pancreas and he began his battle once again on April 15, 2009. On December 3rd, 2009, scans confirmed again NED but relapsed on August 18, 2010 in his abdominal cavity. On June 2, 2011, Nick earned his angel wings.

NICK, It's good to hear from you! I'm glad your trip went well in New York and Boston. It looked like you had a lot of fun. I'm also glad to hear that the Doctors had good news for you! That is awesome! I can't believe the seats that you had at the hockey game. You got hooked up.
I hope all of your up coming test go good and that you will also say that you are in remission even though it sounds like you already are huh? Keep up the fight! We can brag together how tough we are to everyone next time someone tells us how tough they are. Keep me updated with how your test go. And good luck again! Sincerely,
wHi Nick, It looks like you had a great time in NY. How awesome to have such great seats and have your picture taken with 'Sid the Kid'. You're so lucky that you got to experience C'mas at Rockefeller Center. It looks so beautifully decorated on TV. You even got to go ice skating just as you had hoped. Your news from the Dr's is better than I could have imagined. I'm thrilled that you will be able to have C'mas & New Years without worry. Have a wonderful holiday with your family. You are always in my thoughts and in my heart. love you, Denise
