Kaleb Daniel Rapp was born April 10th, 2006 to Bart Rapp and Missy Simpkins Rapp of Bidwell, Ohio. He has an 8 yr. old sister, Sierra Somerville. His grandparents are Jack & Debbie Simpkins of Point Pleasant, WV. But on March 17th, 2011, Kaleb was diagnosed with brain cancer and 4 brain tumors were found and this five year old has battled through one major brain surgery already. He is now finishing up rigorous radiation therapy that went 5 days a week over a 6 week period, then chemotherapy treatments over a 40 week span of time. On May 17th, the doctor's saw in an MRI that the four tumors were gone from Kaleb's brain, so now they are treating him to keep them away. Kaleb will undergo treatment for these tumors for the next five years. As you may know, this unaviodable treatment for this little child will be very expensive, and it is a huge burden for Kaleb’s parents and family to carry alone. Keep in mind that if Kaleb’s family is left paying just 20% of his medical bills, 20% of hundreds of thousands of dollars in treatment for a child with Medulloblastoma can leave crippling medical bills for Kaleb and his family. So, we are asking for our community, the vicinity of Gallia County, Mason County, and the listening area, to help pick up the pieces and aide Kaleb in this battle.
