Meet Owen. He looks like any typical 6 year old boy, but unlike most 6 year old little boys Owen has endured more pain and heartache than most adults.
Owen has Leukemia.
He was diagnosed in June and has since undergone weekly chemo treatments and numerous spinal taps and bone marrow biopsies. He still has a couple months of weekly treatments and then will have monthy treatments for the next 3 years. Throughout all of this, he has maintained a positive attitude and his fun loving personality.
I felt honored when Owens Mom contacted me about doing some family portraits before Owen lost his hair from the next round of chemo. What a sweet little boy he is, I enjoyed a perfect fall afternoon with Owen & his sweet family. This is my first (of many, I hope) "Same Difference" sessions featuring individuals with special needs.
Love & Hugs to Owen and his family as they continue through this journey.
