Show Notes

An afternoon game of football with friends changed the life of 12-year-old Peter "PJ" Williams forever. After being tackled, he noticed that his knee hurt.  The pain and limp did not go away, and PJ's mom, Sophia grew more concerned but neither of them was expecting the diagnoses they received.  Bone cancer.

Listen as PJ shares his story and experience since his diagnosis and the reason he is standing tall today.

You can save a life, like PJ's by registering to be an organ, eye, and tissue donor now.
