Kai Dutton, a kindergarten student at Mt Pleasant Academy, was diagnosed with a sudden aggressive cancer that invaded various parts of his body including his abdomen, kidneys, spine and lungs. Immediate removal of the tumor wrapped around his spine was required, even though his parents were cautioned he may not walk again. Kai is beating the odds by shocking doctors when he started to walk again recently. With Kai’s strength and the help of a caring community, we can join together to help Kai battle Stage IV cancer.
After only a few weeks of beginning Kindergarten, Kai won the hearts of his teachers and classmates. When he was suddenly diagnosed with cancer, classmates and friends from Mount Pleasant Academy witnessed the agonizing hardship this remarkable family was enduring. To support Kai and his family through meals and financial assistance, friends are organizing fund raising events to support Kai’s treatment.
Unable to enjoy many of the thrills of being a kid, Kai undergoes aggressive treatments instead. Read about his recent treatments.
