Boy, 15, battling stage 4 cancer sends urgent plea using mom’s Facebook – and it’s reached Donald Trump

A 15-year-old boy from Alabama is fighting stage 4 bone cancer and made a heartfelt plea on Facebook, seeking urgent help. His video went viral, moving millions and even reaching Donald Trump. Now, the determined teenager is set to receive the potentially life-saving treatment he needs and make an impact.

15-year-old Will Roberts is fighting for his life. He has been battling osteosarcoma, a rare and aggressive form of bone cancer, for 16 months, and despite chemotherapy, it hasn’t helped.

The boy and his family were desperate for help. That’s when Will made a decision that would change everything.

On April 22, without her knowledge, Will secretly posted a video on his mom’s Facebook page, hoping someone would see it and help.

“My mom doesn’t know I’m doing this. Yall pls share this my mom might be mad but at this point I’m trying to help her in any way I can right now,” Will Roberts wrote.

Will explained his mom had endured many sleepless nights researching treatments. He added, “My mom’s found this drug that could possibly save my life if we get it in time.”

Sent an urgent plea using mom’s Facebook

It was then that Will’s mom found something. A potential breakthrough treatment, a drug called DeltaRex-G, might give a fighting chance.

According to the National Library of Medicine, DeltaRex-G has led to “long-term survivorship” of 10 years or more for some patients with complicated cancer forms.
