Paul Coskie, an amazing young man, is one of the kids we have had the pleasure
of helping here at Andew's Helpful Hands Foundation. Paul had a serious bike accident back in
2001 and he was not wearing a helmet. This accident left him in a coma for 2 months. Paul survived this trauma and then in 2005,
he was diagnosed with leukemia. He underwent a bone marrow transplant. His brother Kevin, who was 11 years old then,
was the donor. Even though his body has been immunosuppressed, he graduated from high school and is working full time.
Paul speaks at schools, camps, trauma centers and hospitals talking of the importance of wearing a helmet
and is now trying to bring awareness to the horrors of childhood cancer.
